Animal Crossing: New Horizons is one of the best-selling games available on the Nintendo Switch. In fact, the game has been revealed to be the third best-selling game of all time in Japan, which is no small feat considering that the charming social simulation title only released in March of this year.
With all of the success that Nintendo has seen with Animal Crossing: New Horizons, it is only natural to see the developers eagerly releasing new content for players to get the most out of this experience; even more gratifying is the fact that all of these updates have actually been free.
Most of the new content that the developers over at Nintendo have released for the game come in the form of seasonal updates. The game's summer update brought with it summer clothing, fireworks, and even added the ability to swim, for instance.
Now that Halloween is just around the corner, Nintendo has revealed that a Halloween-themed update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons will go live next Wednesday the 30th of September, and will be adding a bunch of spooky items for players to decorate their island, such as pumpkins, and spooky costumes.
On top of this, Nintendo teases that a special update for the NookLink mobile app will be rolling out early in October, which will allow users to perform in-game reactions with ease, as well as a mysterious update(pretty sure it's Christmas) that will become available for Animal Crossing: New Horizons late in November.
