Animal Crossing: New Horizons arrived in a COVID-ridden 2020, taking the world by storm with its cozy charms and comforting gameplay loop – but now that the recent Nintendo Direct rumors were officially confirmed, fans are ready for a new entry in the wholesome series.
It's that time of year again, folks. The Nintendo Direct is going live today at 2pm BST / 9am ET / 6am PT, which means that we desperate fans are doing our best to manifest titles we'd love to see finally come to fruition – which, of course, must include a new Animal Crossing game. Five years have passed since New Horizons, after all, with major content updates coming to a halt in 2021 with 2.0 (not counting bug fixes and more minor patches).
