Many details about Animal Crossing: New Horizons have been unveiled

Highly anticipated by the fans of the series, Animal Crossing: New Horizons will be released on March 20, and one month before the official release, the game was entitled to a Nintendo Direct just for him. We were able to learn a lot of information there.

The main novelty in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, is that it offers an island-world, in other words, it's a whole island that we will have available as a playground. Some clarifications have been made on this point. First of all, it will be possible to choose your island from a variety of them. You can choose to settle in the northern or southern hemisphere. Whatever you choose, the seasonal system will mark the life on your island. Each season will bring lots of activities, snowmen in winter, insect hunting in summer, or mushroom picking in Autumn.

Some features were presented, including the crafting system, the other great new feature of Animal Crossing: New Horizons. You will have to collect various resources in the game which will be used to make a variety of items. To do this, you will have to go to one of the island's facilities, the Residents' Office, which in addition to serving as a shop, offers a DIY workshop. You will be able to learn plans there, which will be essential for the construction. It will also be possible to personalize your creations. Animal Crossing: New Horizons will also offer a specific currency, Miles Nook, which you will earn by achieving in-game objectives. Miles Nook will then be used to travel via the airport to random islands filled with resources, that you can gather to craft various objects.

The airport is one of the major facilities on the island. It will be used to invite other players to your island, each island can accommodate a maximum of 8 players, including you. You can visit other players' islands too. The airport also offers a postal service to send cards and gifts to your friends.

 


In terms of multiplayer, Animal Crossing: New Horizons allows 8 players to be on the same island, but only four can play simultaneously. In this regard, as it was already announced, if several people play on the same console, a single island will be available for all players.
