Paired with online gameplay, there's a whole open world to escape to when you're stuck indoors. The long-awaited fifth installment in the series, out March 20 and the first since 2012's New Leaf, has much of the same markings as past Animal Crossing games: Your number one raccoon boy Tom Nook and his two twin sons, Timmy and Tommy, are here, running some shady island destination getaway business the resourceful Shih-tzu Isabelle is unlockable and tons of familiar and new Animal Crossing characters are waiting to be invited to your decked-out island. Can you walk around? Catch a butterfly? Enjoy a sunset? Pick some weeds? Harvest some fruit? Great! Then, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is for you. You don't need notoriously difficult Dark Souls-level combat skills to take down scary monsters or the kind of slick stealth moves required to beat Metal Gear Solid.
Technically, sure, but it's also one of those low barrier to entry games that literally anyone can have fun playing. "Isn't this a game for babies?" you might be asking if you've never touched one of the four major Animal Crossing games, starting with 2001's self-titled for N64. It is called "no mercy Island" and I hope you come and visit my beautiful getaway destination as soon as you download Animal Crossing: New Horizons for your Nintendo Switch, which should hopefully be right about now.
In these hell times, I, like with many, many others, have absconded to my own private desert island to resettle.
