Players can pre-register on iOS and Android for $12.99 CAD until January 31st, 2025 at which point the price permanently increases to $24.99 CAD afterwards. Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Complete arrives December 3rd, 2024 with new items appearing until September 2025 before development ceases production entirely.
