Nintendo gave Animal Crossing fans a deep dive into the features and systems of the franchise’s upcoming Switch release, New Horizons. This presentation today included an interesting tidbit about recovering lost save files, specifically that you can actually do it. However, some bizarre restrictions apply.

New Horizons launches on March 20. This life sim is Nintendo’s biggest release for the part of the year. As in past Animal Crossing games, your save file is important. The experience is all about a persistent world that evolves through your effort and time.
