Niantic has announced the upcoming schedule for ‘Pikmin Bloom Journey’, a series of paid real-world walking events for the mobile location-based game Pikmin Bloom.

The first scheduled event will take place in Kobe, Hyogo Prefecture, on November 21 and 22, 2026. The second event is set for Taipei, Taiwan, on January 30 and 31, 2027.

Participants in these journeys can complete specific in-game challenges to obtain exclusive ‘Deco Pikmin’, as well as event-limited Mii costumes and themed postcards.
