Animal Crossing: New Horizons
The recent granddaddy of cozy games, which got plenty of new life with its massive 2021 update and the subsequent release of its Happy Home Paradise DLC. The update added new items, more NPCs (including a few old player favorites), and new ways to spruce up your home with accent walls and ceiling decor. Happy Home Paradise built on that even more with yet more items, a new currency, gameplay challenges, and interior design details like the ability to shine furniture and add partition walls and counters. New Horizons is still arguably the chillest game in town.
