Nintendo has outlined what players can expect to find in the new September update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
The publisher revealed the new features in a video titled ‘Exploring September’. It includes a change in color for tree leaves as Summer comes to a close, marking the start of Fall. With this, acorns and pine cones can be scavenged and used to build an array of seasonal themed furniture.
The update is also set to introduce a host of new bugs, fish, crafting components and recipes. Players can also now hunt the island for insects such as crickets or monarch butterflies to add to their collection, while taking to the seas and rivers can capture unique new fish such as the cherry salmon.
