The world kinda sucks right now, so how about a cheap Animal Crossing: New Horizons deal to cheer you up? The game's not even out yet, but you can pre-order a digital version for just £38.99 from CD Keys. That's 22% less than normal and an £11 saving by our count (it's currently going for £50 from most retailers).

Considering the buzz surrounding Tom Nook and co's return, being able to save so much via this cheap Animal Crossing: New Horizons deal is surprising; it's comfortably one of the most anticipated games of 2020. With that in mind, we don't think the discount will last very long. As such, it's probably worth grabbing before it vanishes. We've only got a week until the full game launches on 20 March, after all.

Either way, the game's cheerful whimsy is a welcome distraction from news like E3 2020 being cancelled. I think we could all do with that right now.

CD Keys has history of pulling this sort of move; just yesterday they had the PC version of Cyberpunk 2077 at a greatly reduced £33.99 rather than £50.
