Pikmin Bloom level requirements and rewards - how to level up in Pikmin Bloom

Get marching up that hill and earning all the Pikmin Bloom level up rewards, with the help of our Pikmin Bloom level guide

Pikmin levels; Pikmin hanging out in a field

Heading out into the world can seem a little unappealing, but what if you could earn rewards every time you step outside? Well, thanks to Pikmin Bloom, now you can! Your long strolls will not only be accompanied by cute little virtual critters stumbling along in tow, but you can spread beautiful wildflowers in your wake, and even snag some goodies as you progress through the ranks.

While the main focus of the game may be marching out into the wild, you’ll need to do more than that to climb up the Pikmin Bloom levels – and that’s where we come in. Every level has specific requirements, including step goals, growing a certain amount of Pikmin, or collecting heaps of petals, all of which we’ve listed below. Don’t worry though, you’ll get plenty of Pikmin Bloom level rewards for your hard work – including cute new Pikmin colours, challenges, and materials to keep you skipping on your merry way.

If you’re taking your first steps out into the blossoming world, be sure to check out our Pikmin Bloom flowers, Pikmin Bloom coins, and Pikmin Bloom expedition guides. We also have a great list of the best games like Pokémon Go, for more location-based fun.

Pikmin Bloom levels

At the moment, the Pikmin Bloom level cap is set to 100. However, as the game is pretty new and you need to get a whole heap of steps in to max out your XP, we don’t know all the Pikmin Bloom requirements and rewards yet. But thanks to the active community, we’ve managed to get info up to level 30 so far, and we’ll keep updating this guide as more information becomes available – so be sure to check back later to find out more.
