The world of Animal Crossing continues to captivate the imagination of players around the globe, but the newest edition of the game is about to get even better.

Another small manga series was previously released earlier this year. Called “Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Carefree Island News,” the series was released in an effort to promote the game.
Another short series featuring everyone’s favorite Nook’s Cranny shop owners—Tommy and Timmy—was also released by Nintendo on their website to promote the game. The island life is coming to life in a new way and we all can’t wait for the new manga series to drop!
