'Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp' coming to iOS and Android in November
It's official — the game application "Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp" is coming to iOS and Android in November. Nintendo made the announcement on Oct. 24 and they also released a short gameplay preview of the game in YouTube.
The sneak peek trailer featured adorable characters and animals doing various activities like fishing, cooking, performing, playing, and creating furniture. Just like in previous Animal Crossing games, players can interact with each other. The Pocket Camp edition requires individual players to setup their own camp and then spruce it up with furniture, trees, and ornaments.
The game follows real-time duration for its game functions like tree planting and fishing. This feature makes it perfect for mobile devices, so people can check on their accounts regularly and conveniently.
The customization feature of the game is also improved with tons of apparels and accessories to choose from. Just like most game applications, "Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp" caters to Microtransaction. Instead of bells, the game introduced a new currency called Leaf Tickets. This currency can help individuals boost the growth of their campsite.
The game will be available in late November. "Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp" is the first non-Nintendo Animal Crossing game. "Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp" will be available for iOS 9.0, Android 4.2, and higher operating system updates.
The game will be offered for free upon release. People can pre-register directly to Nintendo in order to be notified when the game is launched in the App Store and Google Store.
The game was initially distributed in Australia for testing. Nintendo is urging people outside of Australia to wait for the release of the game instead of manipulating their Apple Accounts. There are a few people changing their account's country to Australia in order to gain access to the game.
Longtime gamers of the "Animal Crossing" video game franchise are excited to get their hands on the application. The most recent installment to the game is the "Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival" for Wii U.
