《皮克敏》官方寫「中國台灣」引爆退坑潮 刪帳號前記得做1事

台灣玩家貢獻全球52%營收,因不滿公告將台灣改寫為「中國台灣」及營運商背景引發疑慮,紛紛發起退坑潮並呼籲清除定位與帳號資料。

Quick Look

手機遊戲《Pikmin Bloom》簡中公告將「台灣」改寫為「中國台灣」,加上營運商與騰訊的間接關係,引爆台灣玩家退坑潮。台灣玩家2026年上半年貢獻近新台幣6億元,為全球最大消費市場。事件發酵後,簡中網址公告已改為英文「Taiwan」。

Why It Matters

《Pikmin Bloom》由Niantic開發,近期因簡中公告將台灣改為「中國台灣」引發爭議。

Font size

手機遊戲《Pikmin Bloom》(皮克敏)近日被玩家發現,簡體中文公告將「台灣」改寫成「中國台灣」,並且該營運公司與中國遊戲大廠騰訊存在間接關係,引爆台灣玩家的退坑潮。同時玩家也在社群平台互相提醒,退坑前記得「刪除種花和位置紀錄」,以免資料遭有心人士再次利用。

綜合媒體報導,《Pikmin Bloom》原由任天堂授權、美國Niantic開發營運,2025年隨Niantic遊戲業務出售給Scopely,而Scopely在2023年便由沙烏地阿拉伯主權財富基金旗下的Savvy Games Group收購,Scopely於2026年投資中國遊戲開發商Bokura,而騰訊也是該公司的股東,讓部分玩家產生疑慮。

台灣人在《皮克敏》課金的消費力驚人,據AppMagic官方數據顯示,光是2026年上半年,台灣玩家貢獻近新台幣6億元營收,佔了全球營收的52%,為全球最大消費市場,因此當社群平台上出現「停課、退坑」聲音後不久,昨(12日)原簡中網址的公告已顯示為英文「Taiwan」。

起初為台灣玩家發現,皮克敏手遊《Pikmin Bloom》11月10日推出5週年紀念及全家便利商店合作活動,同一則公告在繁體中文版顯示「全台的全家便利商店門市」,若切換簡體中文版,變成「日本和中國台灣地區」,裡面的文章也大量用這一稱呼。更有玩家發現,更新v157版本後,2027年台北實體活動的通知中,地點被標示「中國台灣台北」,開始在社群平台上討論,進而有大批玩家湧入官方客服抗議,揚言退坑、刪遊。

有網友提醒,退坑除了刪除遊戲前,要先到手機設定的APP設定《Pikmin Bloom》中,收回先前授權的存取、定位權限,打開主畫面齒輪、設定、帳號、刪除帳號,會收到一封很長的信,裡頭有一串退訂的序號,複製後貼上回信,其他什麼都不用寫,官方聲稱完全清除最多14天。此外,如果有連動Niantic ID,也要到Nianticlabs官網移除存取權。

Open Questions

  • 官方是否會對此名稱爭議發布正式說明?
  • 退坑潮對遊戲營收實際造成多少影響?
