A new seasonal update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons will be released for free this Thursday November 19 2020.
New events have been added for November and December:
- Turkey Day: It will take place on November 26. A professional chef called Franklin will arrive and host a gathering in the plaza. You will have to help him cook by gathering the necessary ingredients. Also, you can recieve a gift if you help him.
- Toy Day: The island and the plaza will gradually become more festive over the coming weeks. Shaking decorative trees may drop ornaments that will allow you to craft holiday furniture recipes. From December 1 to December 25, you will be able to purchase toys from Nook’s Cranny and find new clothing at the Able Sisters shop. On Toy Day, which will take place on December 24, Jingle, a black-nosed reindeer will arrive. You will have to help him deliver presents to the animals living on the island. Also, you can recieve a gift if you help him.
Also, there will be nine new reactions and six new hairstyle options available to redeem with Nook Miles at the Nook Stop terminal. You will be able to upgrade your house expanding your home storage to 2400 slots.
The new data transfer feature will enable you to move your user save data, along with the island itself and all the residents, to another system.
From December 26 to December 31, there will also be several festive items to commemorate New Year’s Eve.
The next free update is scheduled for release in late January 2021.
