Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Bank of Nook lowers interest rate
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
If you’ve downloaded the latest Animal Crossing: New Horizons update, you may have come across a message straight from Bank of Nook. Interestingly, the interest rate for all savings accounts have been lowered in the game. That means you won’t earn as many Bells in your account going forward.
You’ll at least receive a couple of items for your troubles. Players are being given a free rug and world map.
Obviously this change comes a little bit out of left field. It’s unclear why Nintendo decided to implement the change.

Animal Crossing devs feel that Tom Nook is misunderstood

If there’s one thing Tom Nook is known for in the Animal Crossing series, it’s the debts he collects. Players need to pay off loans to expand their house, which is a mechanic that carries over into the series’ latest entry. But although some may look at Tom Nook as a character primarily interested in money, the developers behind Animal Crossing feels he’s just misunderstood.
New Horizons producer Hisashi Nogami mentioned to The Verge that “Tom Nook is a very caring, really great guy.” Since he’s an adult, “he’s very careful with money.”
