During its E3 2008 press conference, Nintendo released the first details on its upcoming Animal Crossing game for the Wii. The full name of the game is Animal Crossing: City Folk and it’s planned for a release this year. Just like all previous Animal Crossing games, City Folk has a few mission objectives but you’re still free to decide what you want to do in your own little village. Exploring the town will be a lot more exciting and holiday seasons will be even more fun than in the last Animal Crossing video games.

Communicating will be very important in Animal Crossing: City Folk. You can send letters to other gamers int he post office, and you can communicate with Wii Speak. Wii Speak is a microphone that needs to be placed on the Wii’s sensorbar and it allows you and everyone else in your home to communicate with other players around the world. Just like Animal Crossing: Wild World, this Wii-game will open its gates for visitors from other villages. Last but not least there’s off course the possibility to change the looks of your character to your personal taste. In the Beauty Salon you can even give your player the mask of one of your Mii-characters. More details coming soon.
