Sanrio Is Coming To Visit Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp

Nintendo revealed a special surprise today for Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp as the characters from Sanrio will be visiting. If you're not familiar with the name, they are basically a lifestyle brand best known for several different pop icons such as Hello Kitty, Aggretsuko, and Keroppi. This means yes, you're finally getting Hello Kitty in a Nintendo property that you can interact with. Well, to a degree, as for the next two months you'll be getting items that are mostly decoration. The game will also be bringing back the cute rewards from the first Sanrio Characters Collection in-game event in 2019, which featured Hello Kitty, My Melody, Little Twin Stars, Keroppi, Cinnamoroll, and Pompompurin. You can read more about the event below which kicks off this Thursday.

  • Players can redeem Leaf Tickets for one new Sanrio-themed fortune cookie at the Fortune Cookie Shop, with each fortune cookie providing players one of 10 different Sanrio items.
  • Players will be able to craft Sanrio gifts to send to their friends, which randomly reward friends with one of several special Sanrio character-themed uchiwa fans. There are a variety of fans to collect featuring fan-favorite Sanrio characters, including Cinnamoroll, Hello Kitty, Aggretsuko and many more!
