News of Animal Crossing was first announced back in September 2018 and Nintendo fans went nuts with the very first teaser trailer. Ever since the Nintendo Switch launched, there were two IPs that seemed to have the most impassioned fans: Super Smash Bros. and Animal Crossing. With Smash already out and a huge success, we’re excited to play a different sort of Switch adventure.

Animal Crossing New Horizons arrives on the Switch on March 3, 2020.
