Customer Ratings & Reviews

Worth the wait! There is so much to do in this game and I love how they gave you freedom to change and design your island! Coming from someone who's played the ds version for years as a child, new horizons has much more to offer. I highly recommend this game for people who just want to relax.

At launch, this was clearly the best Animal Crossing game ever made. Since then, it has received several updates making it even better. This game is best played without obsessing over things like the Critterpedia or achievements. Just kick back and relax on your island.

Especially if you have online friends to play with! It's a very calming escape, especially with current events. Dont let the visuals fool you, this is a game for everyone, not just children. If you need something to escape your current situation, something different, just give this game a try.

My seven year old got this for Christmas. He seems to enjoy playing it. He’s playing it in the car right now. My 15 year old has also borrowed it to play some too. The little animals in the game make annoying sound when they talk but other than that it seems a cute game.

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.

A great game for the current global situation...absolutely beautiful, peaceful, and just an all around great way to spend some time. If you enjoy relaxing games, games where you can design stuff (homes, clothes, etc), plant tress/flowers, and/or collect animals (bugs/fish), then buy this game.

This game has been one of the best purchases I’ve ever made! Not only does it make one relax but also it gives me happiness, I never imagined to get emotionally attached to the villagers in my island, but here we are, I sincerely love this game and the service by Best Buy was also nice:)!

Got for my daughter’s switch lite - she’s had a great time playing this game (9 years old). Was easy to start up.

Fantastic game bought at the beginning of pandemic. Definitely recommend for a time killer. Got a good 6 months of daily play fun out of it and probably would have played more but starting using time skips to complete collectibles.

very fun game it is everything i imagined and more.

Animal Crossing is an incredibly relaxing experience that can be enjoyed by anyone of any age. Customize your island and meet villagers! Multiplayer supported! Just know that you can only have one island per switch. One account will be the owner and the rest of the accounts will be villagers.

I share this as an Animal Crossing Fan. I played the original on Game Cube and loved it. This game is so wholesome and fun -- I've played it for hours in a day or just 20 minutes. There's always a new thing to make, do or find in the game. Would recommend for Everyone.

Overall, it is a great game. When I first got Animal Crossing, I thought it would be a great game to try and success! The game was very cute. It is for people that like to build and create things. I would recommend it if you like to perform tasks and build things. It can be very addicting.

Got this for my kids for Xmas because it seems so popular and likes it’s a good kids game. We’ve only tried it once and didn’t get very far but I’m sure we’ll get there. We got the switch about switch games because they seem so much more kid and family appropriate.

Best game ever. Well, for the family at least. All 4 of us have our own user. Kids are having a blast. Awesome to have the online feature as friends can come over to visit the island. Great time specially now with the pandemic. Friends can still hang out virtually.

Play some Animal Crossing! Do things at your own pace. Enjoy the every day life of being in your own island surrounded by cute neighbors! Forget about the real world! There's no pandemic, no politics and you can get rich by selling literal trash! What are you waiting for...!?

This is the first time I ever played any AC game. It's an absolute must buy, I've spent so many hours on this game alone. The amount of time they put into adding detail to this game is unreal The fun you'll have with this game is unlike any other game,you won't regret your decision.

This is the fifth installment of the Animal Crossing series and this one doesn’t disappoint staying true to the original and using components from each and adding more. If you enjoy spending time collecting stuff and decorating a virtual house or entire island, you’ll love this.

This is a very entertaining game for all ages. So much to do, and the difficulty is perfect. Not extremely difficult, but difficult enough to keep your mind stimulated. Great way to kill time and have fun. Also a great game to play online with friends. Never ending fun. Well worth the price.

Without this game I would be super sad and bored for an indefinite amount of time. Now I can social distance but have an excuse to interact with my friends more often to trade and show off my island (as well as my James TeamRocket cosplay). Thank you Nintendo... coming in clutch for the lads
