Development [edit]

Evolution of a new main series Animal Crossing game for the Nintendo Switch was confirmed in a Nintendo Direct on September 13, 2018, with an unspecified 2019 release appointment.[38] Although the game was announced in 2018, game director Aya Kyogoku confirmed that the game had begun development in 2012, shortly later on the original release of Creature Crossing: New Leafage for the Nintendo 3DS in Japan;[39] she stated how concepts for the game were forming long before ideas for the Nintendo Switch had even existed.[40] Hisashi Nogami and Katsuya Eguchi reprised their roles as the game'southward producers.[37]

Nintendo released the game'southward championship and beginning trailer at its E3 2019 Nintendo Direct on June 11, 2019.[41] The game was delayed until March 20, 2020, with Yoshiaki Koizumi stating that in order "to ensure [that] the game [was] the best it [could] exist, [Nintendo had to] ask that [players] wait a little longer than [Nintendo itself] thought."[41] Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser cited a desire to avert crunch and maintain a healthy work–life balance for Nintendo employees equally the chief reason for the delay.[42] Nintendo'due south stock marketplace value posted a 3.5% loss in reaction to the delay, amounting to a full loss in value of more than US$1 billion.[43] [44]

Hyogoku stated that the success of the Beast Crossing series was due to the fact that the developers make each game different enough from the last, to bring appeal to newcomers yet keep the core concept for returning players.[45] Kyogoku and Nogami stated that they selected a deserted island as the game's setting to differentiate it from previous Animal Crossing games, which are set in established villages, and to allow greater freedom to customize the game'due south world.[46] Additionally, a deserted island took abroad established parameters in the serial to allow for different ideas and player interactions.[47] Other concepts, such as the internet and multiplayer, were able to be implemented, unlike previous games due to advancing hardware.[48] Hygoku made sure to keep residuum of introducing new and fresh ideas while retaining cadre elements to satisfy long-term fans of the series.[47]

The developers were very disappointed when the game's release cycle overlapped with the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to quarantine during the pandemic, Kyogoku hoped that the game would exist an "escape" for fans at the fourth dimension. They emphasized a global release to permit for international connections between the players.[49]

Game mechanics and concepts [edit]

The developers made certain to brand the game not simply welcoming new players but to also retain core concepts from the previous games to keep older fans of the series happy. A crafting arrangement was implemented to allow the player to continue the player from running out of things to do later the in-game stores close.[40] She mentioned how the D.I.Y. crafting system would proceed players in theme with the game by interacting and using the natural environment to their advantage. Kyogoku took note of players who began playing Brute Crossing games via mobile apps, such as Animal Crossing: Pocket Campsite, by implementing the Nook Miles feature which would bear witness the actor what kinds of activities and concepts they can reach past rewarding them to do so. The Nook Miles arrangement also rewards the role player for doing common tasks and collecting materials that would sell for cheap to continue the player from only tediously searching out expensive materials. Furniture and clothing accessibility and customization were emphasized for multiplayer so players could show pride in their islands.[47]

Additionally, the developers noticed that players would repeatedly restart games in the previous series over and over, in hopes to get an isle shape that they want. Because of this, landscaping was implemented to allow for like shooting fish in a barrel shaping of the island. Another upshot they noticed was "time-traveling"; due to the game running in existent-time, players would change the clock on the console to put themselves farther into the future so they don't have to wait in real-time. To help avoid this, they made certain landscaping and crafting did not have whatever wait-time restrictions.[40] They also tied seasonal events to updates instead of implementing the content into the game from the beginning then players could not skip ahead and recall sectional items. The interest rate in the game'due south bank system was besides decreased to lower the incentive of time-traveling.[50] Although the developers intended no time-traveling to exist the ideal way of playing, they did non shun the concept entirely.[51]

Art and graphics [edit]

Concept artwork for the "Retro Electric Fan"; fine art designer Hiromi Sugimoti explained how the "imagination gap" leaves furniture designs broad so the player can envision it every bit a real-life counterpart.

The game'southward art manager, Koji Takahashi, went under the philosophy of "trigger of play". The concept makes sure at that place is something inside the player's field of vision or grasp that would want them to explore the concept. With this, the isle was designed from a 45-caste angle like to that of a cylinder, or a "curved" perspective, where the actor could view other content occurring in the groundwork that would "trigger" them to investigate further or collaborate. By making an everyday concept elementary and easy to grasp, it would cause the player to explore it further and be able to easily selection up the new material. If the game'south art was complicated and realistic, according to Takahashi, the player would possibly receive too much information and brand progression difficult. The unproblematic blueprint allowed for a multiple of one object to be stacked close to each other, such as flowers, or allow for simplistic objects to compliment others.[52]

Past leaving empty space and with a simplistic design, with simple graphics and little nature complexity, Takahashi explains how it would have the player endeavour to fill in that gap with their own perspectives and ideas, called the "imagination gap", and further motivation to create their own designs and space with the features bachelor. In the game, the grass is designed to look like that of a checkerboard. Although this concept was in prior titles due to a lack of hardware complication, the concept remained because it could be used as a form of expression for the player and allow them to conceptualize ideas with the "imagination gap".[52]

Art designer Hiromi Sugimoto made sure article of furniture would lead to motivation and hard work, and thus make the thespian want to connect with others to show off their achievements. He made sure the furniture could be customized past the player to ensure the difference between islands that would motivate visiting others and seeing unique ideas. Each furniture model was designed to take a "likeness" to it which would prove exactly what to look and what the player envisions; the pieces of furniture and items implemented various portions on how players view an object to expect like and combine the commons ideas into one model. From there, using the "imagination gap", the role player could make full in the smaller nitpicky info they would expect and farther imagine how they could use the item.[52]
