Customer Ratings & Reviews

Much awaited and anticipated Animal Crossing just came in the perfect time to keep you entertained for hours specially now that most of us are staying home. I bought 4 copies of this game for my wife and kids! They all escape to their own islands and refuse to come back to reality which we are all dealing with right now, cant blame them!

I absolutely love this game!!! I can play it for hours and hours. I’m 37 FYI. It’s just very relaxing. Also Best Buy was fast on the delivery... So glad I was able to find it bc target GameStop,etc were all sold out!!!! Please get it you won’t be sorry. Also this game I play on the Nintendo switch lite I would buy the physical copy bc if you download the digital copy you can only play when you are connected to WiFi.

New Horizons is another addictive entry in the Animal Crossing series. You move to a deserted island that you can develop into a thriving place with cute animal residents. Activities include fishing, catching bugs, watering flowers, and decorating your house. It's a pretty calm game that's appropriate for all ages. I last played the series with New Leaf for 3DS, and I'm definitely enjoying myself again this time around.

Animal Crossing has kept our family of four from killing each other during the coronavirus pandemic and has given us a reason to look forward to tomorrow. I have made the home office of my dreams in my A.C. house and will sometimes have my character just sit in there (in real life I am teaching college courses from my bedroom). If only we could share the Switch but all have our own islands and then it would be perfect.

I was like other people who were on the fence and wasn't sure about this game. I really didn't understand the appeal of it and I decided to give it a try because of all the good things I've been hearing about it. Wow, this game is really fun and relaxing! Me and my girlfriend haven't been able to put it down! If you're undecided, give it a chance like we did and it might change your mind. Great way to pass the time!

It's more of a life simulation with quirky characters, collectibles, habitat customizations, and little surprises here and there with no major conflicts or world ending scenarios. Fish, dig, chop trees, create furniture and tools, sell things, and catch bugs. Then you rinse and repeat. Personalize your whole island and show it off to your friends. A good game for those who want to play in a stress free environment.

I had never played animal crossing before New Horizons. On paper, it’s just not my style of game whatsoever. But during the pandemic I gave it a shot and now I’m in love. You might get bored of it with time, but not until you’ve dumped 100+ hours into it. I bought this copy for a friend who’s getting my old Switch after I upgraded to the OLED model.

I pre ordered this game as my first animal crossing game Ive ever played and it was the best game purchase I’ve ever made! Ive had the game for about a month now and, especially with everyone having to stay home, I have easily gotten in over 200 hours of gameplay! Theres so much to do in this game that even after playing as many hours as I have, I still have a lot of work to get done on my island! Highly recommend!

This game is really enjoyable! Day 1 pick up and there's always something to do on that island. But the game isn't made for players looking for a story or deep mechanics. This game is made to be simple for those looking to de-stress, whether you've had a bad day or just feeling lonely. WARNING, This game registers 1 island per console, so if you are sharing a console with multiple accounts expect to share the island.

I immediately knew I wanted to buy this once it was announced. I have not been let down! I’ve played animal crossing throughout my years (City folk and New leaf). This was definitely a step up! It is such a relaxing game to play at the end of the day to rewind and I love all my neighbors! The new craft option really makes things feel real and I’m not just scrambling to get money. I love it playing this game so much!

My friends always told me to get animal crossing because it was good and I never really believed them. To me, I thought the game was boring given I usually play games like the Witcher or Warframe. Something that has a story line, action and boss battles. But I think this is a nice game when you just want to relax. You play this game at your pace and just create your island the way you want. Plus, it's super cute!

Before purchasing this I was concerned that I would quickly become bored with this game. It has been 8 months and I still haven't run out of things to do on this game. The interactions with friends, and "traveling" to visit their islands during a time of real life social distancing really adds a level of warm fuzzy goodness. Kids of all ages can enjoy this game. I recommend it to anyone.

Oldie but goodie could never get tired of playing it. Me my grand daughter sat and played all night shhhh....dont tell mom lol No one else had the game thank goodness Best Buy came through again

Great game! Good family friendly content that will keep you entertained for hours!

Great game! Easy to play! I’m not a video game person but i love this game! Very cute!

LOVE IT! I can hardly put the game down. Great graphics, love this new version of the game.

Daughter finished Zelda - BOTW and wanted to try something different than BOTW or Mario Kart. Heard about this and she was interested. Bad news is, she can't put it down and sometimes it is a bit of a tussle to have her do her chores and school work, etc. She's 11 and really likes the open-ended nature of the game, etc. From near as I can tell, it is like the oldschool Sim City but for a younger audience.

Over 300 hours in and I am as addicted as ever. Best iterating of the franchise hands down

My daughter absolutely loves this game. Great for all ages

Fun, wholesome game, can play for hours just building up the town and doing the side quest
