Nintendo revealed last week that it was teaming up with Lego to create Animal Crossing sets, in line with its previous Super Mario Bros. and Donkey Kong sets. Now, the company has released a new trailer for the Animal Crossing x Lego collaboration, alongside the official reveal of five Lego sets, their prices, and the release date.
The five sets releasing March 1, 2024, are Isabelle’s House Visit, Julian’s Birthday Party, Bunnie’s Outdoor Activities, Kapp’n’s Island Boat Tour, and Nook’s Cranny & Rosie’s House. We’ll break down each set below, but first, be sure to check out the new Animal Crossing Lego trailer from Nintendo:

Nintendo says each set has been developed to fit together easily and offer a high level of customization. For instance, you can switch elements between buildings, like window frames, with one simple click. All sets can be adapted, mixed, and changed, allowing users to create their own Animal Crossing scenes.
All five of these Lego Animal Crossing sets will be available in retailers and on Lego’s online store starting March 1, 2024.
This Animal Crossing collaboration with Lego isn’t the first time Nintendo and Lego have worked together on Lego sets. The two have been steadily releasing different Super Mario sets for a few years now, with four Donkey Kong Lego sets released back in August. Even outside of Nintendo, Lego is no stranger to taking video game characters and turning them into Legos. It’s been doing that with Sonic the Hedgehog Lego sets for a while now.
