Animal Crossing: New Horizons for Nintendo Switch 2

Escape to a deserted island…now enhanced for the Nintendo Switch 2 system!

Build your own paradise as you explore, create, and customize in the Animal Crossing™: New Horizons – Nintendo Switch™ 2 Edition game. Catch insects at the crack of dawn, decorate your paradise throughout the day, or enjoy a sunset on the beach while fishing in the ocean—all with enhanced resolution, faster load times, mouse control support for faster and easier decorating, a megaphone for calling your animal residents that uses the system microphone, and more.

If you and your friends all have the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, you can share your island in 12-player sessions online*—and with CameraPlay and GameChat** support, you can see and hear their reactions in real time!

Show your island to family and friends—or create together on Slumber Island*

Host friends on your island utopia or pack your bags and visit theirs. Whether playing online* or with others beside you***, island living is even better when you can share it—and with a Nintendo Switch Online membership, you can also visit Slumber Island to terraform, build, and decorate with friends and family in a shared dreamscape.

Even without hopping on a flight or sharing a dream, you’ll meet a cast of charming animal residents bursting with personality. Friendly faces like Tom Nook and Isabelle will happily help you grow your community. They can also offer you services, like Resetti’s Reset Service to clear out any unwanted decorations. Your island getaway is yours to shape however you please—whenever and wherever you want.
