Not only does the art reflect the unique style of theAnimal Crossingseries as a whole but the dynamic poses and vibrant colors convey a sense of drama and excitement that the genre’s modern entries often have. As one comment stated, this cover gives off Persona vibes and I couldn’t agree more.
According to Famitsu,Animal Crossing:New Horizonson Switchsold more than1.88 millioncopies as of March 23th. The title released worldwide on March 20th, which means it managed to sell1.88 millionphysical copies in Japan in only three days. Even more surprising is that Famitsu reported that according to its estimates,Animal Crossinghad the best first-week sales ever for a Switch game in Japan, surpassing every other Nintendo Switch record such asPokemon Sword and Shield, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 2, Super Smash Brothers Ultimate, etc.
In the months leading up toNew Horizon’s release, DOOM Eternal has been consistently paired with the former as the two games share a release date. This resulted in tons of wholesome crossover fanart, which culminated in anew animated videofrom 3D artist and animatorThe Dashing Doctor K. Said video (which was built in Source Filmmaker) brings together the worlds ofAnimal CrossingandDOOM, as it imagines the Doom Slayer making a new friend in Isabelle, with the two quickly becoming best buds and working together to fight off the demons of Hell.
