Animal Crossing 3DS Adds Rooftops, Gardening Store

New details about Animal Crossing 3DS have been revealed by Japanese magazine Famitsu. According to details translated by Nintendo Everything, the new installment adds rooftops as a new area and offers the ability to customize doors, posts and fences. New furniture items have also been added, including a new mermaid-themed set.

Buying items has also changed, and new stores have been introduced including a shoe store run by Lisa the alpaca plus a “miscellaneous goods store.” A new gardening store run by a sloth will offer flower seeds and tree seedlings for sale and the Able sisters will return as the proprietors of the clothing store. Finally, Tom Nook will return, but this time he’ll be running Raccoon Housing. Nook will offer a tent to start, which you’ll be able to gradually build all the way up into a large house, customizing parts to change its appearance.

As previously confirmed, Animal Crossing 3DS has you play as the mayor, and a new shopping mall will be available just beyond the train tracks. The museum will be open 24 hours and offer more fish and fossils, an exhibition room and a museum shop.

Animal Crossing 3DS is known as Animal Crossing: Jump Out in Japan, but a Western title and release date has not yet been announced. We’re expecting more news in the coming months, so keep checking back to IGN for all the Animal Crossing details as they’re revealed.
