Next week, Humble Hearts is bringing its new stealth game Never Stop Sneakin’ to Switch. Have a look at the game below with footage.
Nintendo just kicked off a “Retweet Rally” for Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp a few hours ago. Fans on Twitter were asked to retweet a certain message on various official Animal Crossing Twitter accounts.
In less than half a day, the goal has been reached. The target of 100,000 retweets was surpassed on the Japanese Twitter account alone, where the total has surpassed 250,000.
Once the event ends sometime after December 12, Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp players will be given 20 Leaf Tickets for free.
