14 DAY TRIAL // Nintendo has just revealed the next major update for its smash hit, Animal Crossing: New Horizons. The update will be available for free starting April 23 and brings a lot of new content that will be added each month.
First off, new characters will visit your island after downloading the update. For example, Jolly Red will occasionally show up in his boat to sell in-game art and furniture with unique colors. If you've played any previous Animal Crossing games, then you know you'll have to figure out which art pieces are real and which are fake. After getting a real art piece, you can donate it to the island museum to open an art gallery.
Apart from new characters, the update will also bring seasonal events that will activate for a limited time. The first one, Nature Day, debuts on April 23 and will run through May 4. During Nature Day, special Nook Miles challenges will be available to players, which mostly focus on nature-related goals like planting trees and watering flowers.
Between May 1 and May 7, Animal Crossing: New Horizons players will be able to use a one-time May Day Ticket at the island airport to head out on a limited-time tour to an island that looks different than the usual mystery island tours.
International Museum Day will take place between May 18 and May 31. During this event, players can take part in a Stamp Rally. After receiving a special stamp card, players can enjoy viewing fish, insects, and fossils while collecting stamps at the various museum exhibits to earn an in-game reward.
Last but not least, the Wedding Season will take place between June 1 and June 30. During the nuptial-theme June, players can visit Harvey's island to meet the married couple Reese and Cyrus, and help arrange and take anniversary photos with them in the wedding picture studio.
