The new Animal Crossing New Horizons merch at Nintendo is too cute to handle, but it's UK only for now

Animal Crossing New Horizons has managed to consume my life for a second time, so it was inevitable that I'd be after some new merch. Enjoying the new wares found in the Version 3.0 Update and the Switch 2 Edition was not enough, and instead I had to visit the Nintendo online store for some new goodies featuring my favorite villagers' adorable little faces.

Nintendo must have known I was coming, as shortly before all the new content dropped, a line of Nintendo gifts and merch (early contenders for our best toys list) appeared as part of the brand's "Pop-up Store" products. This Animal Crossing merch is usually reserved for the official Nintendo Tokyo store found in Shibuya, Japan, but the UK storefront has released a ton of key items from the line, including a Brewster Cup and Saucer set that I snatched quicker than you can say "coo".

I'm pretty happy with my cup and matching Brewster Standable Rubber Strap Keychain, which encompasses the line's use of striking pastel greens and beige colors, but the rest is calling my name. If you're equally finding it hard to ignore more merch like I am, I've gathered my top picks from it down below. Just beware, this is reserved for UK fans only for now. The moment they appear on the Nintendo US store, I'll be sure to add them below so the rest of you fans can drop all your bells on as much of the New Horizons merch as you see fit.

Ever since I first held a NES controller in my hand I've been obsessed with gaming, and the hardware it runs on. I could hook up a NES and SNES to a telly, without instructions, before I could walk. Even now, nothing is more exciting then taking a console, or handheld, out the box for the first time and setting it up. This obsession transformed into a love of games and game music, which lead to my music degree and dream of becoming the Scottish Nobuo Uematsu. After sharing my love of games through music, I began to share my love through words on sites like TechRadar and iMore. This lead to becoming a Hardware staff writer for PCGamesN, and later the Senior Tech Writer for Dexerto, covering all things Steam Deck, PlayStation and Nintendo. With that experience, I was able to level up as Hardware Editor for GamesRadar+, where I'm still just as Nintendo, PlayStation and gaming tech obsessed as ever.
