Game’s release date
The upcoming 2020 social simulation game Animal Crossing: New Horizons is coming to Nintendo Switch. It was developed by Nintendo and is the fifth entry in the popular series. New Horizons is the first game in the Animal Crossing universe to feature a brand-new town in 2020. Nintendo is releasing the game in a variety of countries, with more than a dozen different languages available. We’ll take a look at some of the best ways to spend your time.
First, you should know that Animal Crossing: New Horizons is available for preorder on the Nintendo eShop. You’ll have to wait until 12 am ET on March 20 to start downloading the game. If you want to play it early, you can manually search for it. You can also preload the game if you wish. To ensure a successful download, make sure that your Nintendo Switch is able to handle 6.2 GB of memory.
Characters in the game
The update to “Animal Crossing” New Horizons brings back familiar characters, new mechanics, and even some brand-new characters. Among the new features are new items and farming options. In addition, there are two new characters to be unlocked – Pixy and Kapp’n. As with previous “Animal Crossing” games, players can also collect rare materials and fruits in the game.
In addition to the return of familiar characters, this update will feature new flora and fauna, as well as a fortune-telling character. The game will also include a new coffee shop, museum expansion, and Gyroid customization. The game is set to release on November 5th, but Nintendo has not released an exact date or time for the game’s release. While there’s no official release date, it is likely that many of Nintendo’s devoted influencers will be co-streaming the event and reacting to the announcements.
Another downside to “Animal Crossing” is the lack of fan favorites. In the original games, characters sometimes made children cry and were reportedly unfunny. “New Horizons” takes this tone a step further, and some of the most recognizable characters aren’t even in the game. This means that the game will have a monotonous feel after playing through all five-star islands, and some fans may find it a little dull after a while.
Amiibo cards
The highly anticipated update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons includes the fifth series of Animal Crossing Amiibo cards. These cards are compatible with the game via NFC technology in the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller and Joy-Con. These cards will be available on November 5 and will be worth five dollars a piece. If you are looking to get one of these cards, then you have to hurry!
The release date of these cards was not announced until a Direct aired, but that didn’t stop Nintendo from announcing them. It seems likely that the cards will be released with the game’s new horizons content in November. In addition to a new release date, the Animal Crossing amiibo cards will feature the villagers from New Horizons.
Day and night cycle
The new day and night cycle in Animal Crossing: New Horizons features a varying set of events. Each day starts at midnight and ends at 5 a.m., but many of the events will not be available until the next day. Similarly, you cannot build a new building at midnight. This will only result in an upgrade ten minutes later. Similarly, all the resources in Animal Crossing: New Horizons reset at 5 a.m. Depending on your settings, you can even set the time that your village will be open for a whole day!
The day and night cycle of Animal Crossing: New Horizons can also be adjusted by choosing the “settings” menu. To change the time, press the “minus” button on the right-hand side of the screen. You can also change the time by selecting “Save and End”. You can also set a custom clock in your game. In addition, if you are playing on the PC, you can set the time manually in the console version by going to the settings menu. In the Settings menu, scroll to the System option and select “Date and Time.”
