Animal Crossing New Horizons is getting updated for the change of seasons
Right update, wrong season as Nintendo have announced that Animal Crossing New Horizons is getting updated with a major update, that among other things adds swimming into the game.
Called the Summer update in the north, here is just an update, but the content is the same, though no word on if you can Swim in the Winter setting. The update will add the following features and characters to the game:
Swimming and Diving – Grabbing a wet suit, players can get aquatically acquainted with island marine life when swimming and diving arrive to Animal Crossing: New Horizons. When swimming in the inviting waters off the coast of their island, players can dive to discover and scoop up sea creatures that inhabit their island’s ecosystem. It’s worth looking out for any prospective additions to the museum and hearing fun facts from Blathers when donating discoveries.
Pascal Brings Rewarding Recipes – While swimming, players might meet someone new! The friendly visitor Pascal seems to love scallops, and if players discover one while diving, he’ll ask if he can have it. As a thank you, he’ll share some of his mermaid-themed DIY recipes.
Gulliver? – After downloading the free update, someone looking familiar, but with slightly different, pirate-like clothing, occasionally washes up on the shore. Once players offer him a hand, he will send a special reward to show his gratitude for the help.
This update will release on July 3rd, which is next week and then another update is planned for August.
