Danny Trejo is not just your typical Hollywood star and action movie legend, he's also a passionate gamer. While he may have played roles in popular games like Far Cry 6 and Call of Duty: Black Ops, his favorite game is actually a cute life simulator. That's right, the tough guy enjoys playing Nintendo's Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
It may come as a surprise to some, but Trejo has been a fan of the game since 2020 when his son introduced him to it during lockdown. In fact, he loves it so much that he even posted a photo on Twitter holding a Nintendo Switch and declaring his love for the game. And with over 255,000 likes on the tweet, it's clear that he's not alone in his love for the game.
But why does this Hollywood hardman enjoy a game that is typically seen as more relaxing and laidback? According to The Washington Post, Trejo is not interested in playing shooters, stating that he does enough of that in his movies. He enjoys the more peaceful and cozy experience that Animal Crossing offers, and once he started playing, he couldn't put it down.
In fact, Trejo loves the game so much that he even had his own video diary on Gary Whitta's YouTube show, Animal Talking. He shared his island and what he likes to do in the game with his fans. It may seem like an unexpected favorite for someone who has starred in such violent movies, but Trejo is not embarrassed about enjoying a more peaceful game.
However, fans of New Horizons may be disappointed to hear that Nintendo has suddenly ended support for the game in late 2021. This came as a surprise, especially since the game was still selling well, but it's speculated that this may be due to the upcoming launch of the Happy Home Paradise DLC expansion. Nevertheless, with the game being a huge success, it's safe to assume that it will return in some form in the future.
So, when Danny Trejo is not busy beating up bad guys, you can find him fishing in Animal Crossing. And if you're a fan of the game, don't forget to sign up for our newsletter to receive all the latest gaming content and releases before anyone else.
