It's currently unclear why Nintendo has decided to stop support for Animal Crossing: New Horizons, but some fans are speculating it's because Pocket Camp is so much more profitable. The mobile Animal Crossing title also includes various memberships like The Happy Helper Plan and The Cookie and Depot Plan that cost a monthly subscription fee like Nintendo Switch Online, which is one of the few ways Nintendo would continue making money off New Horizons if it never added new content to the game again.
