This is the final major update for New Horizons, adding several highly-requested features to the game. The Happy Home Paradise DLC is set to release soon as well, giving players the opportunity to design dream homes for other villagers. The new addition in the DLC can be used in players’ homes as well, so there’s plenty to do in this update. Here’s everything new with Animal Crossing: New Horizons update 2.0.

The DLC also allows you to customize your home and the homes of villagers in new ways, such as hanging lights from the ceiling and placing partition walls to divide a room into sections.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons version 2.0 will be the final update for the game, so don’t expect any new additions once the DLC is released. We loved Animal Crossing: New Horizons, awarding it a score of 4.5/5 stars in our review. The game came out at just the right time, giving players an opportunity to escape to an island paradise when all seemed bleak.

In our review, we said “Animal Crossing: New Horizons was surely developed over the previous years with one goal in mind: delivering joy to players around the world. Given the current circumstances, that goal has become more important than ever. And that joy seems to have been delivered, with the game succeeding across the board and allowing quarantined individuals a chance to experience a level of normalcy that only a deserted island full of animal villagers can deliver. So while we typically try to craft objective analysis of games with these reviews, it’s important to realize that Animal Crossing: New Horizons has arrived at the exact right time and in the exact right way.”

With the package finally complete, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a great game for both series veterans and newcomers alike. This DLC adds a new layer to an already great game, and if you subscribe to the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack, you get the Happy Home Paradise DLC for free.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is available now on Nintendo Switch.
