Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve been loving this game. i got it a few days ago but i’m so addicted to it. been playing with my little brother and we’re having loads of fun visiting each other’s island. super relaxing to play and i always look forward to playing the nest day. definitely recommend!

This game is great - starts off a bit slow the first few days, but playing with online friends makes it a bit easier to really shape your island into what you want it to be. I really like the option to just pop in a do a few things or to spend hours reorganizing everything.

This game definitely has been a life saver during the recent pandemic of covid-19. I for one am not too familiar with Animal Crossing titles such as City Folk and New Leaf. But this game sure does perform well and it sure looks great since it has a better platform to play on.

The purchase through BestBuy: A very quick and easy download that comes in your email after purchase. Just make sure to hold on to the email it comes in. Really handy when you don't want to worry about losing the tiny game cartridge. The game: I've always loved Animal Crossing. I remember playing it on the GameCube when I was young, and since then I've gotten all the games that have followed. After seven years since the release of New Leaf, the game for 3DS, I was elated to find out a new game was coming out, although worried that all the changes may get rid of the nostalgic Animal Crossing feel. However, the changes ended up simply making that seven year wait worth it. It's almost hard to go back to another Animal Crossing game after playing this one, since they stepped up their game just that much. Whether you're new to the world of Animal Crossing or a Forest Life veteran, it's hard not to fall in love with New Horizons.

Purchased this for my fiance for Christmas and she has been playing ever since. Bit of a learning curve but she looked up online how to make friends and get the most out of the game.

Bought this game for my daughter who has been an Animal Crossing fan for years. The entire family took a liking to it & now we all live on her island. :) I'm glad my kids have this game as a pass time during this pandemic lockdown. Overall, very cute game for all ages.

Had to buy this game after finding out it was coming out for the switch. Couldn't have made a smarter purchase. It makes me feel nostalgic coming back to something I would play when I was younger. Also it doesnt hurt to get away from your real life to a fun and exciting one.

Perfect game during the pandemic! You play to be the best islander for your island! Can't see my friends during these hard times but thanks to this game, we were able to visit each others' island and play games (we designed our island to be a game island)!

My favorite game franchise! I’m so glad the game came out when it did as I was able to truly enjoy it while having to stay home more. Even if you haven’t played the other Animal Crossing games, this is a great intro to the franchise!

Awesome way to relax and just build your island anyway you want and talk to friends while creating!

I have played Animal Crossing before on previous consoles and even on my mobile device. This game is fun and new because it incorporates a lot of what made it addicting and makes it fresh, at least to me. The only reason I am giving 4 instead of 5 stars is because the first person that sets up the island becomes the resident representative and they get the most gameplay, goals and instructions. If you have other people in your household of family that live on the same island, they don't get the same exact gameplay. Still, it is very fun to play.

I've been waiting for a new animal crossing game for awhile and this did not disappoint, especially during this pandemic. It allows for long distance communication and lots of fun and creativity. The staff where I picked up my order were very accommodating during this time.

Purchased for my girlfriend and she is completely in love with it. Every day she looks forward to new experiences on her island. A number of my friends have already sunk hundreds of hours into this, so it seems to have substantial longevity. Get the Godzilla statue!

Take a little mind journey with me; You just got off a stressful shift at your job, turn on your Switch, and load up Animal Crossing. After mashing A for what seems to be 2 years to get through the little daily announcement from Isabelle, you go off to do whatever makes this game so popular among sadists. - Go dig for fossils to turn into the worst museum curator on the planet - Catch the same 3 fish over and over - Wake up a clearly suicidal pelican from his drunken stupor, only to have him word-vomit his entire backstory at you. Every. Single. TIME. - Farm, collect, and sell innocent creatures to repay the loan shark that has your oysters so firmly gripped that your children's grandchildren will STILL be paying off your poor decision to move onto an island with the shark and his family. - Eventually give up and pull off continuous time heists to buy and sell veggies to an old lady to pay off your debts before your fingers are taken, only to have the AC purists screech at you because "you aren't playing the game right". - Go overboard on the time skips to the point where you've paid off all your debts, get bored with the game, take a break for a month, only to stumble across a random YT vid one day that showcases all the players that DIDN'T cop out and quit and their AwEsoME islands that are TOTALLY legit and not hizzacked at ALL, gain minor inspiration to copy their islands until, YES YOU GUESSED IT. You get bored yet again. 11/10, would read through every text box in-game again.

Nintendo delayed this game from December 2019 and released right around the pandemic times. This is a great getaway from stressful times to playing this game. Up to 100+ hours and still have a ton of things to do. This is most likely THE GAME to have during Pandemic times.

Was waiting for this come out. Like it so far but unfortunately there is only so much you can achieve in one day. Overall another excellent Nintendo game. I would recommend playing it on Switch Lite - this was at least for me the better option instead of the regular Switch.

First off I have to say this game is quite addictive. I won't even say how many hours I have logged already ( it's triple digits) but I will say there is room for improvement. Nintendo needs to add in some mini-games to enhance the multiplayer/community aspect of the game.

This came out at the best time possible. When I needed an escape from all the troubles in the world without leaving my house it was there for me. If you enjoyed any of the past games in the series this one builds on every wonderful thing that those games brought with them.

Quick 1 day delivery with no issues and no additional costs! Fantastic game as well that i can hardly put down.

I haven’t really played this game myself, because I bought it for my 10 year old daughter. She has a Nintendo Switch and I gave a rating of 4 stars because I see my daughter play this game at least 30 minutes a day since I bought it. And that says a lot because with young children they play with a game a few times then shelf it. It’s an interactive game that gives you options of what you can do and say to different situations that come up on the game. There is a good amount of reading and following instructions in the game to complete different tasks.
