It feels like it was just yesterday when summer arrived at Animal Crossing: New Horizons, which brought with it tons of new updates such as new sew creatures to find and the ability to swim in the ocean. Now, fall is slowly approaching, and with it comes another wave of new content that will bring a brand new experience for players of Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
To start, it is worth noting that early September is still more or less summer in most places. However, some islands, especially those located in the Northern Hemisphere, will be slowly transitioning to fall. Now, players who are interested to know on what lies ahead this new season, here are all the new changes in Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ fall update.
One of the biggest changes that the fall season will bring to Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a palette swap. Players should notice that weeds and trees are starting to change color in favor of a warmer autumn color scheme. There will also be changes around the island and Timmy and Tommy Nook will probably change the design of Nook’s Cranny to fit the fall theme.
Moreover, Teal Olives will begin to bloom at the start of September, and later, Maple Leaves and Mushrooms will start sprouting. Players will also be able to collect acorns and pine cones by shaking trees, and these new items can be used with new DIY recipes that would produce fall-themed objects.
The fall season will also see the arrival of new bugs that players can collect. As always, the variety of new insects would vary depending on the island’s location, but those in the Northern Hemisphere should be on the lookout for the regal Monarch Butterfly and Red Dragonfly, while those in the South should expect to see the return of the Orchid Mantis. Unfortunately, the variety of bugs are somehow limited in the fall season, but there are still new ones for players to catch and donate at the museum.

Similar to bugs, new and returning species of fish and sea creatures will start appearing in the player’s island as the fall season rolls over. Players in the Northern Hemisphere must take advantage of the presence of the Salmon, given that they will only be available this September. Additionally, players will be happy with the return of the Golden trout this fall, which is a rare species of fish, that is worth 15,000 bells when sold to Timmy and Tommy Nook.
