To celebrate that fact, Sunblink and Sanrio have released a physical Adventure Gift Box Edition version of the title which comes packed in a Collector’s Tuck-in Box and includes a year of seasonal Legacy Event Clothing and Furniture, and physical exclusives such as a Critters & Fish Guide, 18 Collectible Character Cards, 1 randomly packed Premium Card with Foil Finish, an envelope of Tophat’s Memories, and last but not least, a double-sided poster.
