The seasons have shifted in both the hemispheres of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and it has brought some changes. In the Northern Hemisphere, the month of June marks the arrival of summer, and players can indulge themselves in quite a few activities.
The Wedding Season has kicked off that allows players to visit Harvey’s Island to help Reese and Cyrus with their wedding anniversary photo ops. It will last until June ends. Apart from that, a bunch of new bugs and fish are available to catch throughout the summer months.
