Nintendo’s October announcement took the “Animal Crossing” community by storm, declaring this massive update to be “Animal Crossing: New Horizons 2.0.”
A lot of players, myself included, weren’t expecting much, as Nintendo rarely actually listens to its audience.
Players didn’t really know what to expect with this announcement, as the game had been out for a little more than a year and a half. On October 15th, Nintendo premiered an “Animal Crossing: New Horizons” Direct on their YouTube channel. That being said, Nintendo just announced an update that will likely revive the game for old and new “Animal Crossing” fans - myself included. My Instagram Explore page is no longer riddled with memes about Raymond the cat or Redd and Tom Nook’s divorce, and I no longer see people casually referencing it in real life. More than a year later, the “Animal Crossing” obsession has since died down considerably. Whether you picked it up, played 200 hours in the first month and never touched it again, or still play consistently to this day, one could argue that it was one of the most infectious (pun intended) games of 2020. It seems that everybody and their dog was playing “Animal Crossing: New Horizons” at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
