Thanks to Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ success and popularity even among non-gamers, Nintendo’s franchise has collaborated with numerous other brands. This includes the recent Build-A-Bear line that sold out within just a couple of hours, and the collaboration with Sanrio that brought Sanrio-inspired villagers to player islands via amiibos, which was hot enough to see scalpers flocking to make a quick buck.

Clothing lines brandishing Animal Crossing designs are pretty common, especially in regards to pop culture brands like Hot Topic and BoxLunch. Likewise, the Japanese fashion brand UNIQLO will soon bring its New Horizons line of shirts to the United States on June 7. Other countries are getting the line as well, but release dates vary by country, so check the UNIQLO site for more details.
Additionally, to promote the designs, UNIQLO is launching its own Animal Crossing island. Starting April 29, players can visit UNIQLO’s Dream Island via a Dream Island Address where they can grab many of the same designs and more for their in-game avatars.
The entire line of items can be previewed on UNIQLO’s website ahead of the release. Most of the line consists of t-shirts for all genders and ages from babies to adults, sporting adorable designs like a line of every tree fruit, an advertisement for the Able Sisters, and an embroidered Celeste with shooting stars. Additionally, UNIQLO is selling a couple of shopping bags, one of which is branded for Nook Inc. in the iconic seafoam green.
