Free updates for Animal Crossing: New Horizons are planned, Nintendo has announced.
Most of the specifics have yet to be shared. But during today’s Nintendo Direct, it was teased that players can expect seasonal events with guests and more.
The first update introducing a special Bunny Day event in April will be available on March 20.
During today’s Nintendo Direct, Animal Crossing: New Horizons outlined support for the Nintendo Switch Online app.

The service will go live shortly after Animal Crossing: New Horizons launches.
