The Japanese merchandise empire Sanrio is no stranger to video cross-overs, and Animal Crossing is no exception – New Leaf’s amiibo update brought with it amiibo cards that introduced a wide variety of Sanrio character-themed furniture to the game, after all.
Now the collaboration continues with the mobile game, Pocket Camp. As announced in a tweet from Animal Crossing’s UK Twitter account, there’ll be an assortment of Sanrio-themed clothing and furniture to get starting this Thursday, July 11th.
