Animal Crossing: New Horizons has provided a lot of entertainment for the past eighteen months for Nintendo Switch players. The iconic franchise has allowed players to have a relaxing experience on their Island of dreams. They can customize their world and tailor items according to their specifications, while they also connect with cute villagers as well.
However, this experience of sharing memories has also moved into printed media as well. Last year, the game’s latest title in New Horizons received its own maanga series that debuted in Japan in 2020. The series has received two volumes since then, and it looks it will finally receive an English translation that fans of the franchise have waited for a long time.
