Now you can enjoy Animal Crossing: New Horizons (opens in new tab) even when you’re working, thanks to a set of official wallpapers that are perfect for your next Zoom virtual background.
Nintendo shared the new set of four wallpapers on its official site (opens in new tab). One shows the town square and Resident Services tent in the background, ready for you to supplant Tom Nook in making the daily announcements. If you’d prefer to head inside for a more extensively developed island experience, you can use this second image from inside the proper Resident Services building.
Keep in mind that people will expect an Isabelle-quality presentation from you if you pick this background. You may want to hold off until you’re ready to tell everybody about that quiz show you watched last night.
The selection of wallpapers starts with New Horizons but goes much further than that. You could set yourself in front of a legion of adoring fans at an Arms tournament, or stand before the quiet majesty of the Garreg Mach Cathedral, or frame yourself against the high-tech contraptions of professor E. Gadd’s workshop.
