With a free tent and
NookPhone in tow,
you'll set out to build
the island of your
dreams from the
ground up.

N

intendo's Animal Crossing series has
long offered a tantalizing opportunity: getting away from it all and
living the slow life in a quiet town filled with
animal friends.
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, however,
"getting away from it all" has never been more
literal. This time around, you'll arrive on a
deserted island empty of anything except for
Tom Nook, his offspring, and a small Resident Services building. With a free tent and
NookPhone in tow, you'll set out to build the
island of your dreams from the ground up. According to Nintendo developers Aya Kyogoku
and Hisashi Nogami, instead of starting in a
prebuilt town, the team wanted to let players
build everything from scratch in New Horizons.
Once you've placed your tent, the hard work
begins. Deciding what goes where might not
be easy, but actually placing things is easier
than ever thanks to some of the updates

Animal Crossing: New Horizons will bring. Now,
items can be placed both inside and outside,
meaning you can make your island far more
elaborate or creative than ever before. You
can push or pull objects and furniture to get
their positioning just right, and should there
be a tree in the way of your grand plans, they
can now be dug up and replanted with ease.
And, in a twist that'll have players everywhere
keeping islands always looking their best, Tom
Nook will now even buy the weeds you've
pulled. So, the better you keep up your surroundings, the more Bells you'll have in your
pocket.
Speaking of Tom Nook (and sons), Animal
Crossing: New Horizons is introducing an idea
called the Nook Mileage Plan. You can earn
Nook Miles by accomplishing a variety of tasks,
from selling possessions, to catching fish, to
making tools, and much more. Earn enough
points, and you'll be able to trade them in for
