Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Doom Eternal couldn't be more different, but they do share one exciting trait: their release date. New Horizons and Doom Eternal launch in less than a month on March 20, and we imagine there are plenty of folks out there who plan on picking up both. For those interested in slaying demons and picking flowers on March 20, Walmart will be selling Switch exclusive New Horizons and Doom Eternal for PS4, Xbox One, and PC for $49.94 each.

You'll have to go to your local Walmart store to save $10 on New Horizons for Switch, as the offer is in stores only for now. Pre-ordering online will still cost you the full $60.
