Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Nooks Cranny might receive an update in 2022

Animal Crossing: New Horizons has received its last major update with version 2.0, as declared by Nintendo. However, it seems like players are not done with the title yet, as rumors suggest that Nook's Cranny might be getting an upgrade in 2022.

The prospect was discussed by the popular Animal Crossing YouTuber, Mayor Mori, in his recent video.

Inside Nook's Cranny, there is a mysterious staircase that apparently leads nowhere. However, players believe that the 2022 upgrade to Nook's Cranny might expand the building in a manner that the staircase will ultimately be useful in the game, and lead to expanded space in the store.

Apart from this, there are several instances where New Horizons players have seen building upgrades within the game, such as the Museum upgrade. However, one thing that has been common in these upgrades is that the buildings keep expanding till they cover the entire base that the building is set upon.

In the case of Nook's Cranny, the base is not completely covered yet, thereby leading players to believe that they might still see an upgrade to the bulding this year.

Although Nintendo has announced that New Horizons will receive no further major updates, these speculated changes to Nook's Cranny will not count as major rework, so Nintendo will
