Animal Crossing: New Horizons has proven to be one of 2020’s biggest games. Not only was it a massive sales success, but Nintendo’s life-simulation game became a cultural phenomenon in its own right. Nintendo has kept Animal Crossing: New Horizons fans engaged with the game with regular updates, and while it may seem like that those updates will be going away, that’s apparently not necessarily the case.
In an interview with Polygon, Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser stated that Nintendo “definitely” sees major content updates for Animal Crossing: New Horizons continuing in 2021. For 2020, these updates largely revolved around holidays and the like, so it will be interesting to see what Nintendo cooks up for 2021. Perhaps the updates will continue to happen around holidays, or maybe some of the new Animal Crossing: New Horizons updates will come at unexpected times.
The latest Animal Crossing: New Horizons update prepped the game for end-year holidays, like Thanksgiving and Christmas. Animal Crossing: New Horizons‘ big Toy Day holiday is coming up later this week, and will be the last major content for the game in 2020.
Since Animal Crossing: New Horizons came out in March of 2020, it missed January and February. Perhaps Animal Crossing: New Horizons will get an update revolving around Valentine’s Day in February, assuming the holiday theme will continue. If so, fans can expect Valentine’s Day-themed furniture and other items, and maybe even an NPC added to the mix. In fact, there is one NPC in particular that seems like he would be perfect for a Valentine’s Day event.
One of the Valentine’s Day benefits Animal Crossing players enjoyed in New Leaf was getting hot chocolate from Brewster, the NPC that runs the coffee shop in the game. Brewster is not in Animal Crossing: New Horizons yet, and so Valentine’s Day seems like the perfect opportunity to add him to the mix. Beyond that, perhaps the event will revolve around handing out Valentine’s Day cards to one’s villagers in exchange for holiday-themed gifts.
Of course, that’s assuming Nintendo even has a Valentine’s Day update planned for Animal Crossing: New Horizons. It seems likely, but so far no official details have been revealed about the game’s future updates. All we know now is that Nintendo does indeed plan to continue releasing substantial Animal Crossing: New Horizons updates in 2021, so fans of the game should have plenty to look forward to in the new year.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons is out now for Nintendo Switch.
