After Animal Crossing: New Horizons set a high bar for the series, Nintendo could learn from Zelda: Breath of the Wild's success for its next game.

The success of Animal Crossing: New Horizons has raised expectations for the next game in the series, and Nintendo could learn from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild's approach to push boundaries and overcome series fatigue.
While Animal Crossing's traditional formula has been successful, there is a risk of the series becoming stale over time if it doesn't introduce significant changes.
The next Animal Crossing game should maintain its momentum by implementing a design overhaul while still incorporating key features like customization, but it could also explore new settings, introduce a story, or revisit older games to better recognize their potential.
