Escape to island life—now better than ever on Nintendo Switch 2. Build, explore, and customize your own paradise with enhanced resolution, faster load times, and mouse controls for quicker, easier decorating. New features include a megaphone that uses the system microphone to call your animal residents, plus overall performance improvements.

Enjoy island life solo or together. With the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, you can host or visit friends in online sessions of up to 12 players, and with CameraPlay and GameChat support, see and hear friends’ reactions in real time. You can also collaborate with family and friends on Slumber Island, a shared dreamscape for terraforming and decorating.

Meet beloved characters like Tom Nook and Isabelle, grow your community, and shape your island however you like. New gameplay additions let you decorate hotel rooms for resort guests, invite special visitors using amiibo, and enjoy quality-of-life updates such as batch crafting and using materials directly from storage.
