While Nintendo has not shared anything about the next chapter in the Animal Crossing series, it probably looms somewhere on the horizon. Animal Crossing: New Horizons took the franchise to new heights, which led to one of the biggest games the Switch has ever seen. Because of that success, the franchise will likely never look the same again. Even though the next game may not make it to the Switch, there is a strong chance it becomes a major selling point for whatever console Nintendo makes next, especially if the studio increases the building size.
