Nintendo's Most Adorable Series Is Getting a New Mobile Version, But There's a Catch
Briefly

The announcement of a new Animal Crossing game always lands with a perfect balance of exciting and soothing. We're not quite getting that yet, but for players who skipped the microtransaction-filled iteration of Nintendo's chillest series (probably because of all the microtransactions), a considerably watered down version of that thrill is coming soon.
While it's called Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Complete, the new release is actually cutting a few features from the original game. Since the new edition no longer requires a constant internet connection and doesn't include a subscription, features that revolve around communicating with other players are getting significantly reduced and many subscription benefits are being removed altogether.
The new release carries a hefty $20 price tag - an unusually large sum for a mobile game - but if you get on board before January 31, 2025, you can pick it up for a more reasonable $10.
Current players will have until June 1 to transfer their save data for the new version of the game, while interactions with friends, including using the market box, sending gifts, and stamping photos will no longer be available.
