Spring is returning in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and as usual, it's bringing a few exciting holidays for New Horizons players to celebrate. Although all of the Spring events making a return in 2022 were already included in previous years, they're nonetheless a good opportunity for new players or those who may have missed out last year to get ahold of limited-time items. On top of that, there's quite a bit of exclusive gameplay that Animal Crossing fans can only participate in during certain timeframes, such as Fishing Tourneys or Bug Offs. Here's a look at what to expect from this year's Spring celebrations in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
Since announcing that no more DLC is planned for Animal Crossing: New Horizons following the release of New Horizons 2.0 and the Happy Home Paradise DLC in late 2021, Nintendo has significantly slowed down the amount of content coming to Animal Crossing: New Horizons. As a result, holidays and other occasions generally just repeat from year to year, with only occasional slight changes in the form of which items are in circulation. Although this does at least keep the game from feeling entirely stale, it means that players who have been with New Horizons since it was first released in 2020 may not find it worthwhile to complete events that they've already played through. Still, it can make for a refreshing change of pace from the usual daily activities and tasks of New Horizons, which could help tide Animal Crossing fans over until the next game is eventually announced.
