7 Ups & 4 Downs For Gaming In 2020 (So Far)

3. The World Coming Together On Animal Crossing

Elijah Wood dropping by someone's island to pick fruit, Danny Trejo inviting people to hang out, Star Wars writer Gary Whitta starting a talk show, Queer Eye's Bobby Brown giving interior decorating tips. Wrestlers, musicians, Guy Fieri and anyone else you could think of, all were living it up in the idyllic life sim that is Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Such a massive influx of players made AC the highest-selling Switch game ever, and to this day you'll find millions of players trading turnips, requesting songs from KK Slider or meticulously arranging some chairs and flowers before their friends come around.

With Nintendo adding copious amounts of things to do including museum expansions and swimming, Animal Crossing: New Horizons has been the brightest light amongst so much darkness, and the perfect game to get lost in right now.
