Hamilton is one of the most popular musicals in the world. Animal Crossing is currently one of the most popular games out there. I think it only makes sense for someone to combine them, but I didn’t expect it to be that damn good.
Somehow we at Kotaku missed this when we were the maker Guitar_Knight14 dropped it on YouTube back in December. Happy, Kotaku’s own Uncle Fahey shared the video with me so I can share it with you now.
In the beginning from the video, I just laughed at the novelty of it. But as the musical went on, I became increasingly impressed with the attention in detail, the way the camera moves to add more excitement to scenes, and the clever use of emotes and in-game items.
As the video progressed I started to get turned on to see how Guitar_Knight14 would pull the next upcoming song. I’m not even a big fan of it Hamilton and I still watched a lot more of it than I expected while compiling this post.
Guitar_Knight14 has also uploaded some videos explaining how they put this whole thing together if you are curious about that.
