Nintendo revealed that Animal Crossing will be its next franchise to be transformed into a Lego set, following sets based on Super Mario Bros. and Donkey Kong. The collaboration was teased Thursday morning in a video posted by Nintendo on X (formerly Twitter).
The teaser shows Lego versions of Tom Nook, Isabelle, Kappan, Rosie, Bunny, Marshall, Julian and Fauna standing in front of a group of Lego trees as they watch a balloon floating in the air. It’s only 11 seconds long, but anyone who plays it can instantly recognize and connect with it Animal Crossing: New HorizonsThe game that took Nintendo’s long-running life sim series into the mainstream in 2020.
Apart from this teaser, we haven’t learned much else about LEGO Animal Crossing. That means we don’t know if it will be as extensive as LEGO’s Super Mario Bros. collaboration, which lets players build entire courses with LEGO, in addition to the Mario and Donkey Kong characters. It all comes from a partnership between the two companies that began in 2020, with Nintendo’s Takashi Tezuka saying at the time that he’s “always loved LEGO products and how they help kids use their imagination to play “
We don’t know when any of these LEGO Animal Crossing products will launch, so we’ll have to wait to hear more from LEGO and Nintendo about it. Regardless of when it happens, the idea of building your own Animal Crossing island with LEGO and populating it with minifigures is a brilliant idea, so it makes sense that this collaboration happened.
