It should be remembered that, with more than 30 million copies sold in just over a year that is on sale, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is the second best-selling Nintendo Switch game, but a large part of the gaming community believes that the Japanese company does not give it the attention it deserves. That is why, along with the announcement of this minor update, Nintendo has ensured that it is already working on new free content updates that will arrive in the remainder of the year and he wanted to thank the community for their “patience and support.”
In addition to these updates, more free content for #AnimalCrossing: New Horizons is currently in development for later this year. More information will be shared in the future, so please stay tuned. Thank you for your support and patience.
