Animal Crossing New Horizons had a quiet and chill June month but now we are directly running towards the summer. Now we can expect a slew of new content and updates coming to our paradise island. In the first part of the summer update, patch 1.3.0 is available from July 3. This is the second major update since the launch of this game!
In a post a few weeks back, we predicted and mined for information on upcoming updates. Our regular readers should be delighted to know that a majority of our predictions hit the mark! We predicted that Swimming/diving will be available in the future updates and Voila! But then let us get down to the official updates that have arrived at Animal Crossing New Horizons.
Go on! Grab that wet suit from Nook’s cranny and take a dive into the undiscovered world in Animal Crossing: The Ocean. And if for some reason water scares you, don’t you worry! You will have your own floating philosopher, Pascal right with you. What’s more… you get new sea creatures for your Museum, new mermaid set furniture to craft and aye…aye…Pirate Gulliver.
Everyone’s favorite floating philosopher is here…and just look at him! Pascal certainly knows how to chill. Craft his favorite furniture—Pascal’s kiddie pool—and he might just pay you a visit. He’ll probably offer you some unique bits of wisdom while he’s there, too! #PocketCamp pic.twitter.com/YknFvhoNJo
