Players recently welcomed the year 2022 in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. With the arrival of 2022, users will encounter new things on the island. Nintendo migrates creatures in ACNH on a monthly basis and we will see new creatures arriving on players’ islands in a few weeks.

Interestingly, Northern Hemisphere players will not see any new creatures on their island. However, Southern Hemisphere users should look forward to upcoming bugs, fish, and sea creatures in January.
