After the 3.0 update and Switch 2 Edition for Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Nintendo says there’s nothing to announce about the game’s future or a new Animal Crossing entry. A Variety interview with Nintendo of America’s Reiko Ninomiya reiterates that larger updates or a new game aren’t disclosed, even as the update revives interest and Nintendo plans ongoing content to keep players engaged across the Switch ecosystem.
