10 Underrated PVP Modes In Video Games

Pikmin 3’s entire story revolves around the concept of co-operation. The members of the stranded crew will not survive without each other, or without their leafy new allies the Pikmin. Nevertheless, the game also sees fit to pit players against each other in the riotous Bingo Battle mode.

In this mode, each player is given a ‘bingo’ card to complete, with various pieces of fruit and so on to collect. Bringing this specific thing back to Onion first ticks it off, and … well, you can see where this is going.

The franchise tends to be known for the time factor. Whether it’s ticking down the days until Olimar’s life support system fails or until the team runs out of precious, life-giving smoothies, time management has always been key. Bingo Battle emphasizes this factor, while also tweaking the strategy required when against another player.

The Pikmin 3 campaign can be played in co-op, and it’s a lot of fun managing and maintaining a team of Pikmin between you. In the light of that, the PVP element of Bingo Battle is often forgotten.
