When it comes to cozy and relaxing games, one of the first things that comes to people's minds are titles from the Animal Crossing franchise, and rightfully so. Each iteration provides a pleasant experience, and one of the major components that contributes to that is the series' characters. The villagers of Animal Crossing come in many different forms and personalities, each with distinct looks that enhance their fun and memorable interactions. The next game in the franchise is likely to add even more NPCs to its already large cast, and if it does, Nintendo should consider doubling down on more unique designs.
