Most Anticipated Games of 2020
Honorable Mention: Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Features Editor Greysun Morales: Animal Crossing: New Horizons is almost here and I’m so ready to start paying off a loan to a sneaky little annoying raccoon named Tom Nook. I know that doesn’t sound fun at all and it’s something that shouldn’t even exist in a video game but it’s Animal Crossing, so you know it’s going to be good regardless.
New Horizons is all about living somewhere that people would love to vacation with all of your friends and making your town the best spot in the entire world. Gardening, fixing up your house to match your personality, crafting, fishing, and many other things will take up dozens if not hundreds of hours of your time and I’m excited to get pulled in once again.
The deserted island setting is a perfect way to get people wrapped up in the phenomenon that is Animal Crossing and it also helps that the game looks absolutely gorgeous in motion.
Animal Crossing’s debut on the Nintendo Switch is an exciting moment in the history of the hybrid console making it one of the most anticipated releases of 2020, even when you have stuff like The Last of Us Part II and Cyberpunk 2077 coming out around the same time.
