Edit, as it now looks like I’ve inherited the Animal Crossing New Horizons thread I thought I best attempt something that resembles a reasonable opening post, I’ll add a few more bits in over time but just a couple of videos for now.

It looks good? Naturally I’m disappointed its been pushed back to March 2020 but I still think we could have seen some more about it, I mentioned in the other thread I was worried it’d be delayed when we had 10 minutes to go and hadn’t seen it yet and sadly that turned out to true
Edit, new video form the Nintendo Direct on 04/09/19.
Edit, official box art!
Looks lovely, really shaping up to be my game of 2020 so far

If the hustle and bustle of modern life’s got you down, Tom Nook has a new business venture up his sleeve that he knows you’ll adore: the Nook Inc. Deserted Island Getaway Package! Sure, you’ve crossed paths with colorful characters near and far. Had a grand time as one of the city folk. May’ve even turned over a new leaf and dedicated yourself to public service! But deep down, isn’t there a part of you that longs for…freedom? Then perhaps a long walk on the beach of a deserted island, where a rich wealth of untouched nature awaits, is just what the doctor ordered!
Peaceful creativity and charm await as you roll up your sleeves and make your new life whatever you want it to be. Collect resources and craft everything from creature comforts to handy tools. Embrace your green thumb as you interact with flowers and trees in new ways. Set up a homestead where the rules of what goes indoors and out no longer apply. Make friends with new arrivals, enjoy the seasons, pole-vault across rivers as you explore, and more!
This new addition to the Animal Crossing series launches March 20, 2020, exclusively for the Nintendo Switch system.
FEATURES:
- Customise your character and home, and decorate the landscape (with furniture, if you like!), as you create your very own island paradise.
- Experience a robust new crafting system—collect materials to construct everything from furniture to tools!
- Enjoy a variety of relaxing activities like gardening, fishing, decorating, interacting with charming NPCs, and more, as classic Animal Crossing experiences come to life in fun new ways within the deserted-island setting.
- Up to eight players can reside on an island; four residents of the same island can play together simultaneously on a single system.
- Eight players can play together on one player’s island via online* multiplayer or local wireless**.

Edit, to go alongside the GOTY 2020, they’ve announced a lovely Animal Crossing themed console. Every time they announce something to do with this game it just makes me yearn for it more and more
