Animal Crossing: New Horizons is getting a massive new guide book featuring everything fans could ever need or want to know about the popular life simulation game. Since the newest entry in the Animal Crossing franchise debuted in March 2020, the game has been met with near-universal praise from both fans and critics alike. The Animal Crossing game quickly became one of the hottest titles on the Switch and stands as one of the best-selling games on the console nearly three years after its launch. Now, Future Press is bringing fans the ultimate guide to their island adventures.
While Animal Crossing: New Horizons hasn't seen any major changes in over a year, the life simulation game's post-launch cycle saw frequent updates. Nintendo frequently introduced free patches adding in features like diving, cooking, and new locations like Brewster's Cafe. Animal Crossing: New Horizons even received a full-fledged DLC in late 2021 with the release of Happy Home Paradise adding a new story, new furniture, and changes to the game's design elements. Fans will soon be able to see everything Animal Crossing: New Horizons has to offer in Future Press' new guide book.
The guide book from Future Press will feature nearly 700 pages with everything fans could ever want from an Animal Crossing: New Horizons guide. The book will feature sections on all content featured throughout the game's history, from base game and Happy Home Paradise content to the various seasonal events. As a guide, the book also offers advice and information to help players build up their island paradise. The book is available for pre-order from Amazon with Animal Crossing fans able to pick up the book on April 30th.
The release of New Horizons' guide book nearly three years after the game's release shows the immense staying power of Animal Crossing's newest entry. The game's launch at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic saw many fans turn to the game as a creative outlet during difficult times. New Horizons' massive success saw the game become the second-best selling Switch game of all time, only behind Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The game also remains one of Nintendo's best-selling games to this day, frequently appearing on monthly sales charts.
While New Horizons may not have any new official content coming from Nintendo, fans have continued to sustain the game with unique and inventive creations. Animal Crossing: New Horizons has seen a variety of fantastic designs from re-creating elements of games like God of War to building stunning and intricate island designs. New Horizons has even been featured by major outlets like the UK National Video Game Museum and used in political campaigns. The new guide from Future Press will look to honor the legacy of one of Nintendo's biggest games.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons is available now for Switch.
