Nintendo conducted some maintenance on Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, and also issued a brand new update. As previously mentioned, version 1.2.0 can be downloaded now.
We now have a comprehensive breakdown of the new update and its features straight from Nintendo. Get the full details below.
The 3DS has been home to a number of “Conqueror” games over the years. Now in collaboration with Easytech Game, Circle Entertainment is putting World Conqueror X on Switch.
Unfortunately, Circle isn’t sharing information just yet. The company will be providing “more details in the coming weeks.”
Currently we only have this tweet to go by:
