Animal Crossing: New Horizons camo glitch

Another Crossing: New Horizons has had a number of prominent glitches since launch, though Nintendo tends to patch them out. The trend continues with another fan favorite: the camo glitch.

The bug previously let players force items to take on any color texture instead of having to be limited to Nintendo’s palettes. It was a way of coming up with all sorts of unique combinations, such as a room styled after the colors of a birthday cupcake. You can get a closer look at what the glitch previously allowed for from AbdallahSmash026 below.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Unlike previous games, Nintendo has been taking a tougher stance on time traveling in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Players have not been able to freely fast-forward the time or day in order to access seasonal events early – for the most part anyway.

For the initial launch of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, that time traveling technique simply didn’t work at all since the player’s clock would be checked to ensure that it was accurate. Interestingly though, it has not been enforced as of late. Players discovered that there was no such restriction in place with recent events like Halloween.

With over 26 million copies sold since its March launch, it’s safe to say that Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a hit. However, the game has gone beyond simply being an experience for players to manage their islands and connect with friends. Businesses and organizations have started to take interest, and it’s something Nintendo has now become fully aware of.

Today, Nintendo posted usage guidelines for businesses and organizations in how they get involved with Animal Crossing: New Horizons. It forbids certain actions like using the game inappropriately, featuring politics, or obtaining financial benefit.
