Nintendo have announced the April update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons; bringing back May Day, Museum Day, and Wedding Season.
The update includes the revival of several late April and May events last year. Once again (from April 29th to May 7) users can use their May Day ticket to access a maze-based island. Those who solve the puzzle will get rewards from a familiar face.
Museum Day is also back from May 18th to May 31st. Players can gather stamps around the museum, unlocking goodies for completing a set within a wing. This also grants access to the art gallery’s Stamp Rally for players who had not yet unlocked it at the time of the original event.
It is not clear at this time if there will be new rewards for those who have already completed the above event. One event that will be getting new item is Reese’ and Cyrus’ Wedding Season.
From June 1st to 30th features the alpaca couple renewing their vows once again, and rewarding players for wedding photos to the theme they ask for each day. New Seasonal Items will also be available, including a wedding bell, ring on a pillow, door-plate, and Japanese Shinto wedding clothes.
Other Season items include those for Mother’s Day, (and possibly Father’s Day based on the images), and Cheese Rolling. The update launches April 28th. You can find the images for the update below.
