Nintendo announces Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp game, coming to Android and iOS in late November

As expected, Nintendo unveiled its newest mobile game, Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp. Not yet available for download, the game will be launched in the App Store and Google Play in late November, the developer announced.

If you're not familiar with the Animal Crossing franchise, then you'll probably want to know what's this all about. First off, this is an old series of games that made its debut on the Nintendo 64 back more than 15 years ago.

Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp is a game in which players must build a camp life with friends and their favorite animals. Decorate your camp, adopt any theme you want (sporty, funny, cute), and put whatever furniture and amenities you like inside.

As you grow your friendship with animals, you will be able to host them at your campsite, so make sure you craft and decorate it with their favorite items.

Nintendo announced that Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp will be available as a free download with in-app purchases. It's worth noting that you'll need a persistent Internet connection to play the game (over cellular or Wi-Fi).
