Animal Crossing Characters

Nintendo has detailed this week's big new Animal Crossing: New Horizons update, which will add an array of new characters and events to the game.

These are characters in New Horizons. For a list of Villagers in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. The many characters that make up the society of the Animal Crossing world.

It will be available to download for free this Thursday, 23rd April.

From then, nature-loving sloth Leif will appear as a travelling merchant, and will sell new shrubs and flower seeds to decorate your island.

Meanwhile, the mafia-connected Redd will show up in a rusty boat to sell questionably obtained artwork and sculptures, along with uniquely-coloured furniture. As in previous games, you'll have to spot forged artwork or risk buying a fake.

As previously found by fans within the game's code, artwork will then be shown off in a new section of the town's museum. But only legitimate artwork!

Four timed events will take place through the remainder of April, May and June, the first of which - Nature Day - kicks off alongside the new update.

Nexuiz linux. Nature Day will run 23rd April to 4th May and offer Nook Miles challenges for gardening-related activities.

May Day Tour will run 1st May to 7th May and let you hop onto a specially-crafted island tour where a 'special visitor who looks familiar might also be there'. Is this Tortimer's retirement island? Sadly, no, the trailer below reveals this to be Rover.

International Museum Day, which is apparently a thing, will be celebrated from 18th to 31st May. A stamp card will be given out for visiting museum exhibits, which will let you earn an in-game reward.

Finally, from 1st to 30th June, the game will celebrate Wedding Season (sssh, don't tell Nintendo). Harvey's Island will host married couple Reese and Cyrus who will reward you with items for helping them arrange and take anniversary photos. Bless.

Next up, Brewster please Nintendo thank you.

Nintendo's first known LGBT characters appear to be in Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Western release, but not Japan.

Update 19/04/2020: After the speculation surrounding the sexuality of C.J and Flick in Nintendo’s Animal Crossing: New Horizons, it seems as if the two are simply just business partners. DualShockers received an email from someone who has informed us of an official clarification by sharing a photo of a “Did you know?” section found in the Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Official Companion Guide which launched on April 16, 2020, in Europe. The section specifies that C.J and Flick are both roommates and business partners.

So, while the wording from the two in-game might spark curiosity about hidden meanings regarding the relationship between them in the Western release, the official guide book confirms that the two are not in a romantic relationship. The two are simply just working together.

The original reporting continues below.
