‘Tis the season for showing a little kindness to those around you—even if it’s in a game! You can show that sharing is caring by giving gifts to NPCs and/or friends that you play with in these games.

 

Hades:

Animal Crossing: New Horizons:

Escape to your personal island paradise in the Animal Crossing™: New Horizons game! Get to know the island residents as you garden, fish, and much more. Show your neighbors and guests* hospitality by gifting them items you think they might like. Island living is even better when you can share it!

 

Atomicrops:

You’ve inherited your late grandfather’s farm…moments before the surrounding countryside is vaporized by a nuclear blast. Armed with your hoe, a watering pail, and a fully automatic weapon, grow crops to feed the locals, befriend livestock, and woo someone to fight and farm alongside you!

 

Spiritfarer:

Build a boat to explore the world, befriend and care for your spirits, and guide them across mystical seas before releasing them to their afterlife. Farm, fish, and harvest as you spend relaxing quality time with your spirit passengers. You can even cook and give food to hungry friends!

 

Stardew Valley:

Create the farm of your dreams in Stardew Valley. Armed with hand-me-down tools and a few coins, you can raise animals, go fishing, tend to crops—the choice is yours! Become part of the community and befriend the locals by helping them or gifting them some of their favorite items.

 

Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition:

Discover the origins of Shulk as he and his companions clash against a seemingly unstoppable mechanical menace. Wield a future-seeing blade, chain together attacks, and carefully position your party members in strategic, real-time combat.

 

My Time at Portia:

Restore your Pa’s neglected workshop to its former glory, grow crops, raise animals, befriend the towns quirky inhabitants, and uncover the mysteries this charming post-apocalyptic land has forgotten! Build relationships with the locals by giving them gifts they may enjoy.

 

Minecraft Dungeons:

Fight your way through an action-adventure game set in the Minecraft universe! Brave the dungeons alone or gather a few friends for four-player online* play. Keep an eye out for a festive-looking merchant named Gift Wrapper at Camp. He can help gift items to other players!
