Despite the initial mention of this type of purchases integrated in the videogame itself, the official portal has removed that mention.
Nintendo has eliminated all mention of the possibility of microtransactions and integrated purchases in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. When there are only a few weeks left before the first main game of the saga is put up for sale in seven years, the questions remain many, but little by little we know how the experience of this installment for Nintendo Switch will be.
As we see, the ESRB previously indicated “In-Game Purchases”, which left the doors open for DLC, expansions, micropayments with real money or free downloads, as Nintendo has accustomed us with some of its latest releases in this same console. Now, that date has disappeared.
Cases parallel to the game that concerns us are, for example, Fire Emblem: Three Houses and Pokémon Sword and Shield. Receiving the same official Nintendo website as a reference, the mention of micropayments appears in the section dedicated to the Intelligent Systems videogame and, in effect, the game already has a DLC as an expansion on the way to 2020.
On the other hand, in the case of the deliveries of Game Freak that mention does not appear anywhere, but also the titles will have an Expansion Pass from this June.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons
The scenario for Animal Crossing: New Horizons is, for this reason, lack of realization in this regard. We will update to any news.
March 20, Animal Crossing returns for Nintendo Switch
The latest known information about the title confirms that the game will be fully compatible with Nintendo Switch Online (which invites us to think about a possible integrated voice chat together with the written chat), the weight of its digital download and the possibility of saving our game saved in the cloud if the cases Nintendo is studying are met; among them, a loss or theft.
For the rest, we already know how the multiplayer mode of the title will work, both local and online; added to the new special Nintendo Switch console with Animal Crossing motifs.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons will be released exclusively for Nintendo Switch this March 20.
