The world is wild, man. Celebrities are going ham on this game like the rest of us and for good reason! New Horizons launched right at the cusp of a world-wide quarantine due to COVID-19, giving people all over the globe respite from an ongoing stressful and uncertain situation. This game offers peace, a sense of purpose, and a continuation of a journey that many have fallen in love with through the years. With celebrities themselves also stuck in quarantine, it seems like the barrier between them and us “regular folks” is shrinking and we’re all just coming together in support and that’s really beautiful.
