Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Nintendo’s UK website provides some information regarding Animal Crossing: New Horizons save file transfers. Although it won’t be supported at launch, a function is coming “later this year” that will let players move users and save data to another Switch.

That’s not the only save-related feature due out after launch. Nintendo Switch Online cloud saves aren’t supported, though there are plans to let players recover data in the event that your system gets lost or damaged. However, it will only be possible to recover data one time.

Nintendo is returning to GDC with a brand new session. During the panel, producer Hisashi Nogami and director Aya Kyogoku will discuss the creation of the Switch game.

Here’s some additional information about the event:

WayForward’s new Switch exclusive Vitamin Connection is now available on Switch. Have a look at the official launch trailer below.

Bandai Namco has issued a new gameplay trailer for Kefla’s addition to Dragon Ball FighterZ. Get a look at the video below.

Nintendo has passed along a new batch of screenshots and art for Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Have a look at the latest images below.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons doesn’t support Nintendo Switch Online cloud saves as we’ve traditionally seen. However, Nintendo has said that if your Switch gets damaged or lost, there will be a way to recover save data.

More information will be shared later, and the service will be available sometime after launch. However, we do have an interesting tidbit from today’s Animal Crossing: New Horizons Direct. According to some fine print included in the presentation, “Nintendo Switch Online members can only have save data recovered one time due to loss or damage of system.”

Nintendo has put out an announcement recapping all of the news from the Animal Crossing: New Horizons Direct. We have that below, along with the full presentation for those that missed it.

Nintendo has provided new information about how amiibo works in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Figures and cards are both supported. When scanning either one, that character will appear in-game. There’s also Photopia where you can place models and have photoshoots.

It sounds like not every amiibo will be supported initially, as Nintendo said it will support additional characters in the future.
