    New features

    The Switch 2 Edition pushes the game to 4K in TV mode and introduces mouse-style controls with the new Joy-Con 2, making decorating and custom design actually easier and more precise. Online sessions now support up to 12 players, and GameChat lets you voice chat and see small webcam bubbles while playing together — real social upgrades for island hangouts.

    Relaxing and Fun Game

    Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a very relaxing and enjoyable game. The graphics are beautiful, and there are so many things to do on your island. It’s perfect for playing at your own pace and unwinding after a long day. Highly recommended.

    This is THE BEST game ever! My grandchildren love it as well myself. The tasks given throughout are so rewarding, you get to work and be paid, learning decorating for other animal crossing friends. Highly recommend, but prepare yourself to be invested in continuing playing finding it difficult to leave game wanting to continue improving island…
