Animal Crossing Pocket Camp Has Now Shut Down Here’s How to Keep Playing [Video]

Animal Crossing fans logging into the Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp this morning are in for a sad surprise, after Nintendo turned off the servers for the mobile game today.

After previously announcing the shutdown of the online version of Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, Nintendo has followed through and, as promised, pulled Pocket Camp offline. Players who attempt to log in to the app now are met with an error message explaining the situation.

“Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp service has ended,” the message reads. “We are truly grateful for all of your support over the years.”

Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp first launched as a free-to-play game in 2017 on Android and iOS devices, almost three years ahead of the Animal Crossing boom in 2020. The game got regular updates throughout its seven-year history, with new events, items, and features added in subsequent versions of the app.
