Both hemispheres have a lot of new stuff to look for this month. September is a bit of a transitory month, taking us out of summer and into fall in the north, and out of winter toward spring for the south. Even bigger changes are coming though, so be sure to watch for updates as they’re released. And with another big month of change coming for October (though it’s less change in the north) you’ll want to watch for that list in a few weeks. Also watch for our new bugs and undersea creatures lists as they’re released. Some big changes are coming there as well. But hopefully this list of new fish to catch in September in Animal Crossing: New Horizons helps.
