Believe it or not, Animal Crossing: New Horizons has been at our side on Nintendo Switch for majority of this year. And with close to a handful of engaging and worth returning updates for concurrent players, the game will be ending strong as the latest Winter Update is finally here. On Tuesday this week, Nintendo uploaded a trailer showcasing some of the newest additions for the next client of additions.

While titled in favor for the holiday season, the Winter Update kicks off in celebration of ‘Turkey Day’ which is happening on November 26. The event will introduce Franklin and island residents must assist in bringing ingredients in preparation for the feast later that day. But not too long after that, snow begins to blanket over your island.

You can watch the Winter Update trailer in the video below:

Then close to a month after, ‘Toy Day’ will be taking place and your island will be visited by Jingle who needs your help in delivering presents to your friends on the island. But while the two are not due to arrive until later, players can at least enjoy the new Hip Reactions that will be added for players allowing users to react with their bodies. Reactions like sitting, yoga, and waving goodbye are just a few to list.

Atop of additional cosmetic features that will be included in the Winter Update, player House Storage has been increased as well. Noted, save data transfer also goes live today. Looking forward, there will be a new update slated coming in late January Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Nintendo confirms.
