Sanrio, Nintendo Link for 'Animal Crossing'

The pack includes all six amiibo cards from the collaboration series. The cards are compatible with "Animal Crossing: New Horizons" and are each coming with a different theme inspired by various Sanrio characters.

After updating the game to the latest version, players will be able to tap the Sanrio amiibo cards to their Nintendo Switch to unlock exclusive posters to order in-game, along with furniture and fashion items inspired by the Hello Kitty, Pompompurin, Cinnamonroll, My Melody, Little Twin Stars and Kerokerokeroppi series. Players can use these items to dress up and decorate their island to the Sanrio characters' theme. Six exclusive residents matching these themes can be invited to the player's campsite and move to the player's island. These residents can also be asked to Harvey's island for a photoshoot session.
