Animal Crossing: New Horizons May Day

Just like last year, May Day is up and running in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. However, if you’re a new player, obtaining one of the event’s items simply by playing the game normally is now impossible following this week’s update.

May Day involves going through a hedge maze. Once you’re through with it, Rover gives a briefcase for those that are participating for the first time. But those who completed May Day previously will receive a photo of the character instead.
