Animal Crossing: New Horizons may have been left in the dust by Nintendo following its record-breaking numbers back in 2020 but these free downloads are a sure fire way to celebrate a game which got us through a tough time.
Released just at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, Animal Crossing: New Horizons became a lifeline for many people by allowing them to stay in touch with friends, gather together on a virtual island and of course, hang out with some adorable animals.
However, following the launch of its first and only Happy Home Paradise DLC, Nintendo suddenly stopped supporting Animal Crossing: New Horizons and the game has been left to sit with its current content on the Nintendo Switch.
Although this is sad news for fans who sunk endless hours into the social simulation game, there is still no denying that the game came at the perfect time and, as a result, it means a lot to many of us.
