Nintendo just held its E3 presentation and revealed a lot of upcoming stuff. Many fans were excited to hear the developers discussing the soon-to-be-released content. However, the Animal Crossing: New Horizons community faced disappointment throughout the entire presentation. Apparently, Nintendo didn’t reveal any update announcement for New Horizons. Several fans who put their hope to hear good news for ACNH at E3 were let down. Now many players are wondering what is the future of New Horizons planned by Nintendo. NINTENDO DISAPPOINTS ANIMAL CROSSING: NEW HORIZONS FANS Nintendo disappointed many fans after revealing nothing about New Horizons in the whole presentation. Sadly, there was not even a single discussion regarding ACNH. Indeed, the developers didn’t promise any big content and fans put their hopes quite high. However, there is nothing wrong with getting excited and putting high hopes on a game that you love deeply. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210316135256/Animal-Crossing-7.jpg] After all New Horizons is the biggest game on Nintendo Switch [https://www.nintendo.com/switch/] and fans deliberately want to see something huge. After one year of release, developers are just releasing events from last year which is upsetting a lot of fans. Naturally, we will see many players quitting the game as Nintendo is not planning anything big for the community. ALSO READ: Animal Crossing: New Horizons- Should Nintendo Add Social Media Apps to the Game [https://www.essentiallysports.com/esports-news-animal-crossing-new-horizons-should-nintendo-add-social-media-apps-to-the-game/] The developers will release many updates this year but unfortunately, all the updates will be small and will add some seasonal events and items. Most of the items will be the same as last year and therefore many veterans will feel wasting their time on it. Due to lack of content in the game fans expected to hear some news like a Zelda crossover, or villagers from previous titles returning to ACNH. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210116161148/animal-crossing-new-horizons-winter-update-pocket-camp-nookphone-collaboration-item-2-1.jpg] It’s been more than one year since New Horizons first released and players didn’t get a huge update on its anniversary or for the 20th anniversary of the Animal Crossing series. Thus, many users are sharing their anger and disappointment online. Not only that, many content creators are bearing this feeling as well. Nintendo has to think of the game’s present situation thoroughly as if this continues it might face a terrible loss. It’s the developers’ duty to fulfill the player’s satisfaction but looking at the current stage of the game it’s clear Nintendo is not able to fulfill that part. What are your thoughts on the current situation? Let us know in the comments.

<h2>Animal Crossing 2021 - New Horizons, Pocket Camp, New Leaf, Wild World</h2>
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-522829" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210121201735/animal-crossing-new-horizons-1-2.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="732" />
<h2>Animal Crossing: New Horizons - First Release</h2>
Animal Crossing: New Horizons is the fifth main title in the Animal Crossing series. The game underwent a worldwide release on March 20, 2020, for the Nintendo Switch console. Since then, it has amassed immense popularity and received worldwide acclaim.

It is currently the newest entry in the series after Animal Crossing: New Leaf (2012). Following its release, New Horizons became one of the few games in the series to get additional post-launch content periodically.

New Horizons' launch was initially planned for 2019 after the game was first announced during a Nintendo Direct in September 2018. Fans were treated with the first gameplay footage during the Nintendo Direct for E3 2019. The event showcased the new narrative and game mechanics. However, this event also confirmed that the game's launch would be delayed until March 2020.

More gameplay followed during the Nintendo Direct in September 2019, accompanied by a new trailer with additional information. After that, the Animal Crossing: New Horizons Direct greeted fans with a detailed look into the game in February 2020. Ultimately, in March 2020, the game saw the light of the day.
<h2>What is Animal Crossing: New Horizons?</h2>
It is a real-time life simulation video game developed and published by Nintendo. The story starts with the player assuming control of a customizable character who relocates to a deserted island after purchasing a Nook Inc. Getaway Package from Tom Nook, one of the most popular Animal Crossing characters having appeared in every title in the series.

The game takes place in real-time, and a player can explore the island in a non-linear manner. They can collect and craft items and evolve the island into a beautiful community of anthropomorphic Animal Crossing villagers.

Players can progress with their island life at their own pace. They can indulge in gardening, fishing, trapping bugs, collecting fossils, and more. Getting acquainted with the animal residents, decorating and designing the island to perfection are perhaps some of the most attractive features. The time of the day and the seasons match with real life.

Fishing and catching insects are among the favorite pastimes for island dwellers. Since the game follows real-time mechanics, there is a wide variety of critters to catch, depending on the season and time of the day.
<div class="column column--6 main-header__text">
<p class="txt-big vp-slide vp-slide--up vp-delay-4">The best part about collecting all the items is that one can donate them to Blathers for the museum. Blathers is an Animal Crossing character who is exceedingly interested in the island ecosystem. He will gladly accept new species of bugs and fish and analyze the fossils dug up.</p>
Besides that, players can fill their pockets with items they find while exploring. They can also carry necessities like a fishing pole, net, shovel, and pole.

Planting flowers aids in the beautification of the island. Players can water their garden plots to make their plants bloom. Then they can harvest or cross-pollinate. One may even end up growing a flower with rare colors.

Another specialty of the island is the fruit growing on trees. Players can also plant new varieties of fruit from other islands. One can either plant a piece of fruit or dig up a sapling and carry it in their pocket until they locate the perfect spot to plant it.
<h2>Why is Animal Crossing: New Horizons so popular?</h2>
There are more reasons for the game's popularity apart from the enticing features mentioned above. New Horizons is praised for its straightforward yet immersive gameplay. On top of that, a wide range of customization options means players can modify almost anything to their liking. Besides, there is no competitive rush, meaning players can progress at their own pace.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons quickly broke several records after releasing. It became the highest-selling game in the Animal Crossing series and the second-highest selling game on Nintendo Switch.

The game provided a much-needed escape from the harsh reality for millions around the world when the COVID-19 pandemic was at its peak. Moreover, amid the strict stay-at-home and social distancing orders, players took to the world of New Horizons to indulge in real-life activities in the game.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons' massive popularity also stems from the variety of new features introduced. Using their NookPhone, players can keep track of critters collected, DIY recipes learned, call islanders, take pictures, collect Nook Miles, and much more.
<p class="vp-slide vp-slide--up-min vp-delay-4">One can also customize their NookPhone's appearance, use the Island Designer app for terraforming their islands, and even create intricate custom designs through Pro Designs.</p>
Players can earn Nook Miles by completing tasks or going about their daily island routine. They can then use the Miles to access new DIY recipes, bigger pockets, buy special items like a Nook Inc. uniform, alongside several other in-game services and products.
<h2>Crafting and Customization</h2>
One can give their island a personal touch. They can customize their community at their own pace with greenery, furniture, and decorative items. Then they have the freedom to place those items indoor or outdoor to their pleasing.

Players can select starting locations for their homes, the residents' homes, and several other buildings. They can place bridges and ramps, alter river paths and cliffs. Furthermore, fences are available along with a path creator.

Players can use Tom Nook's workbench to craft furniture, tools, and a lot more to decorate their island paradise. Eventually, a player will learn to create DIY benches of their own. Islanders can also teach the player new DIY recipes if the player speaks to them while they are crafting.

New buildings such as Resident Services and Dodo Airlines and locations such as Harv's Island have only added to the popularity of the game. Alongside town customization, there are also options for furniture customizations.

During the beginning of the game story, the player is prompted to customize their character's eyes, skin, hair, nose, and mouth. Besides that, a player can obtain hairstyles and colors by redeeming Nook Miles at a Nook Stop. Overall, Animal Crossing: New Horizons gives the player more freedom for customization than previous titles in the series.
<h2>Is Animal Crossing: New Horizons free?</h2>
Animal Crossing: New Horizons is not available for free. One can purchase a digital version directly from the official Nintendo website for $59.99.

However, after purchasing, one can enjoy the free updates that keep coming out from time to time, bringing seasonal in-game events and activities.

<h2>E3 2021: Dates, participant publishers, announcements of new games</h2>
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-665116" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/E3-Tile-2.png" alt="" width="1101" height="619" />

The Electronic Entertainment Expo, popularly known as E3, is the largest annual business conference for the gaming industry. The first such conference took place in May 1995 and over the years, the Los Angeles Convention Center has become the customary location where it transpires.

E3 serves as a noble platform for video game publishers and gaming hardware manufacturers to showcase and promote their products and projects to gaming enthusiasts around the world. The Entertainment Software Association (ESA) organizes this premier event and also oversees the arrangements and presentations for it.

During the event and in the days leading up to it, well-known participant studios and companies broadcast their press conferences to announce new games and merchandise related to gaming.
<h2>E3 2021: Dates, online format, and free-for-all event</h2>
Despite some initial concerns, E3 2021 is all set to go ahead but with some major changes to the format. Following the cancellation of E3 2020 due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, this will be the 26th edition of the event.

E3 2021 will run from June 12 to June 15, 2021, and will follow an entirely digital format. While the ESA had initially hoped for holding an in-person event, they had to improvise their plans because of the ongoing pandemic situation.

This year's E3 will not only be hosted online, but it will also be completely free for all to attend. As confirmed by the ESA, it will feature live press conferences broadcasted live on the days of the event.

Notable personalities from the gaming industry, including Greg Miller, Jacki Jing, and Alex "Goldenboy" Mendez, will serve as the hosts for the virtual shows. They will guide the digital attendees throughout the proceedings.

For hosting the virtual E3 event, the ESA came up with a mobile app and online portal to keep track of everything that's happening. Members of the media and press will receive access to the app and portal about a week before the event. On the other hand, the common public will gain access to it on the start date of the event.

Formerly, Konami had plans to participate in the event; however, they dropped off from the list later on. The company took to <a href="https://twitter.com/Konami/status/1388266921498394624" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter</a> to announce that it will not be ready in time to present at E3 2021.
