Yesterday’s Direct revealed a ton of new information about Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Since then, Nintendo shared some more tidbits on various social media channels. Perhaps the most important bit of news was just published by the UK Animal Crossing account on Twitter: it seems like there’ll be a total of 383 different animal villagers in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
For a bit of context, Animal Crossing: New Leaf initially featured 333 villagers, but this was extended to 399 with the Welcome amiibo update. This means that at least some of the older villagers won’t be in New Horizons, at least initially.

Today, Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition has received an age rating in South Korea. This usually means that the game is in a mostly complete state and as such, its release date isn’t too far away. The last time we heard anything about the game was when it was announced back in September of last year; the game’s official release date is still a rather vague “2020”. Hopefully we’ll hear some news soon.
Originally launched for mobile platforms in August 2019, A Street Cat’s Tale went first to Steam in September and now arrives on console in March. The game launches on the Nintendo eShop on March 12 worldwide for $7.99, with pre-orders opening on March 5. You can take a look at an overview as well as a trailer below:
A Street Cat’s Tale is a light survival game about an adorable little kitten. This heart-warming story is told through beautiful retro-style graphics and features a large cast of memorable characters.
You’ll take on the role of a young kitten forced to survive for up to 10 days in a big city, scrounging for food and shelter. During your adventure you’ll meet a variety of interesting people and animals. Some will feed you and help take care of you, while others may be surprisingly mean and cruel… A Street Cat’s Tale features multiple endings determined by how you react to the people and creatures around you.
This new Nintendo Switch version of the game has added a number of features to improve the gameplay experience for users, as well as new language options such as English, Chinese, and Korean.

You wouldn’t be blamed for being dissatisfied with much of Capcom’s output on Switch. Many of the company’s releases are mere ports of older games that often offer little to no improvements upon their previous editions, all while being overpriced compared to other platforms. The recent ports of the first two Devil May Cry games are solid examples of that. With the third DMC port on Switch, however, Capcom has taken a different approach. This new release of Devil May Cry 3 Special Edition is more than a simple port. Rather, it features a few simple additions that completely shake up the way the game is played. For series veterans and newcomers alike, the Switch version of DMC 3 is perhaps one of the best ways to experience this action game classic.
