Animal Crossing: New Horizons Pre-Order Bonuses, Switch Console, Release Date

With Nintendo not having announced most of their first-party lineup for 2020, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is the company’s big Nintendo Switch game for the year right now. The upcoming Switch sequel is the first mainline entry for the series in eight years, and it’s bringing some big changes to the series’ formula when it arrives March 20, 2020.

In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, your character will be ferried (via the Nook, Inc. charter) to a deserted island, where they can set up a tent and start growing their own town through many of the same activities seen in previous Animal Crossing games: crafting items, shaking trees, fishing, and more.

As the new release date for Animal Crossing: New Horizons draws closer, you might be wondering where you can pre-order the game and if there are any bonuses. Read on for more info on the best places to pre-order Animal Crossing: New Horizons as well as its newly announced special-edition Switch console. You can also check out its official box art below.
