Release Date: TBA

It's been well over five years since the last mainline Animal Crossing game - the 3DS' New Leaf - came to the west, and it's safe to say that fans are fed up of waiting for the next core iteration.

Nintendo finally confirmed in their September Direct video that the next Animal Crossing will land on the Switch sometime in 2019, with rumours suggesting it could be as early as March or April.

The town dwelling franchise is one of the most addictive Nintendo properties going, and there's no doubt that the Switch's first effort will keep owners glued to their consoles after a fairly so-so 2018.
