Customer Ratings & Reviews

At first I was extremely upset that this game was getting pushed back for a Spring 2020 release, but now that I'm trapped at home all day everyday for the Shelter-In-Place, I couldn't be happier that it released when it did. Think of it as a mini-life simulator without death, taxes, or politicians. It's an incredibly relaxing escape from everything going on right now.

The best Animal Crossing game so far in my opinion. Tons of replayability/come-back-ability for things like customizing your town and the huge number of craftable recipes you can collect. Biggest downside for me was the lack of some of the old items and furniture sets, though hopefully those get slowly added in over time through free updates.

Great game to sit down and chill with. I like it better than the 3DS one.

Awesome quirky game. Really customizable and laid back feeling. Well done

Kid's are all having a blast with this game! It is very family friendly and fun(for kid's and adults alike). It can just be a fun innocent outlet for the kids to spend a little time in and be creative! Even non-kids will have fun with this one, a very relaxing no stress environment that is welcome distraction to these challenging times.

The best game at the right time. Amazingly, this game came out right at the start of the COVID19 pandemic. Hours of fun, although the return diminishes over time, especially once you get to the theoretical "end-game". Nonetheless, there's always something to do, and it's easy to pick up and grind away for burst gaming.

I was a little fearful to purchase this game, considering, everything was being lockdown, money was tight, and I didn't know if I would have more coming in. So did I need this? By all means no, but if you are a fan if this series, you know that this game basically allowed you to live life abeit virtually, and during these months of staying in, it was well worth it.

My son loves Animal Crossing and played the last two games a ton. Once I opened the game after it came in, he’s been playing it at a steady clip. He says it was worth the wait (pre-ordered this well over a year ago back when we pre-ordered fire emblem). Another must have for all Switch owners!

This is the coolest and easiest game to play and it highly addictive.

This is a great game if you are on a 18 hour flight otherwise it is too much to try in a short time. It leans on the boring side because you are trying to do everything they ask and it can get redundant.

Outstanding graphics, gameplay and tons of fun, run don't walk to buy it!

10 Year old daughters favorite game! Easy to play with friends.

My second AC game and I felt it's a great entry to the series. The change from towns to islands keeps it fresh and I love fishing in this game. There's something about fishing and catching bugs that feels so relaxing. My only problem with this game is the villagers' convos don't feel as deep as previous entries, but that's more of a Nintendo issue.

Great game and super calming! It's really nice to have a game that isn't fast paced to wind down at the end of the day. It is as structured or as unstructured of a game as you'd like it to be. For myself, I downloaded a companion app to keep track of daily tasks (finding fossils for the museum, talking to villagers, hitting rocks for supplies/bells). It's very fun

I absolutely LOVE this game and I'm a 52 year old Grandmother of 6. Loved it so much that I bought my 8 year old Grandson the exact same game. The price was great at Best Buy. It was easy to locate in the store. I still have 5 more Grandchildren to introduce to Animal Crossing New Horizons & will make sure to buy them all at Best Buy.

This game is perfect for current times, keeps you busy. While you are playing you have to look for your creativity side in order to build up your island from scratch. This is a different game but definitely fun and time consuming. By the end of it all you will be satisfied with you island and being able to share it with your friends and family as it is very interactive.

Fun new entry to the series. I've played this series since the original Gamecube game and Nintendo does not disappoint with the new game. Interact with local townsfolk in a game that progresses real-time 24/7. Make friends, fish, catch bugs, harvest crops, and have fun in Animal Crossing. Take the game on the go or play on a large tv. Win-Win.

Although I'm a longtime Animal Crossing fan (all the way back to Gamecube days!), this rendition could NOT have come along at a better time! I have spent many hours in quarantine catching fish and bugs, talking with my villagers with their unique personalities, or collecting all sorts of items. And, it never seems to grow old. Thank you for this little gem!

My 14 year old received this for both a Bday gift and something to keep her occupied while being stuck at home. She plays online with her sister who lives out of state as well as her friends. This is her first Switch game and after seeing the graphics I plan on getting her more games.

I've loved Animal Crossing ever since I was a young girl, and New Horizons definitely didn't disappoint. This is a perfect game for children and adults. Also amazing for those getting back into gaming as you can take it slow. If your first taste of AC was Pocket Camp, I feel like you'd enjoy anew Horizons, as some of the elements are the same. Great game over all.
