UNIQLO launches First Animal Crossing: New Horizons UT Collection this May


If there is one thing during this pandemic that kept me sane, it was definitely because of playing Animal Crossing and building my island, “Sakura”. I remember my friends asking me how many hours I’ve spent terraforming and gathering resources / items to catalog, because playing took away the stress and I was able to still bond with my friends online. That is why I was so excited when I UNIQLO announced that they will come up with an Animal Crossing line soon! 



Global apparel retailer UNIQLO will launch a UT (UNIQLO T-shirts) collection with Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the hit game from Nintendo Co., Ltd. for the Nintendo Switch™, on Friday, May 28. Based on the concept of "Connect with friends through clothing," this collection was inspired by the game's uniquely original animal characters, and life in the New Horizons world. Special content to fully enjoy the collection in-game is also being offered by way of a special UNIQLO Island and Custom Designs. 



UT and goods inspired by life in New Horizons

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a communication game popular with people of all generations, in which players develop their own deserted islands and live in them however they please.
