Halloween is coming to an island near you!

Starting September 30, turn your Animal Crossing: New Horizons island into Halloween Town. Don’t forget to buy some sweets from Nooks Cranny, and plan a plot for your new pumpkin patch, because new pumpkin DIYs are headed your way! The Able Sisters are getting some spooky new additions, too, and check the ATM in your town’s center for some new customization options for your character (including zombie green skin!) A few new hauntingly good Reactions are making their way to you as well for a screaming good time.

Don’t let a pandemic get your Halloween down, from 5 p.m. to midnight on Halloween, visit the Pumpkin King Jack to celebrate the occasion and get ready to trick-or-treat with your dreamies who will, of course, be dressed for the occasion.

Another update is planned for early October which will allow you to use your reactions from your NookLink phone and in late November, keep your eyes peeled for another new free update (gobble gobble and ho ho ho!).

The Fall Update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons is free, check your switch for the alert on September 30!
