Overview
Description

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a laid-back life simulation where you develop a deserted island into a personalized community, crafting, decorating, and interacting with charming animal villagers in real time.

In 2160, humanity has colonized Mars after Earth’s collapse. The Eurasian Dynasty, United Civilised States, and Lunar Corporation each build their own societies, but old rivalries ignite anew. Players command one of these factions, managing resources, constructing bases, and conquering alien terrains with moving liquid surfaces. Beyond classic base‑building, the game adds adventure‑style missions, co‑operative play, and a rich single‑player campaign that explores the mystery behind the strange events of the year 2160.
