Animal Crossing: New Horizons has become the most popular title in the Animal Crossing series.

Furthermore, New Horizons has sold over 37.62 million copies worldwide and created an immense impact on the community.

Unfortunately, developers have already announced that they will no longer release major updates for ACNH. Indeed, this disappointed several users as Nintendo gave up on the title in just two years of release. However, many newcomers joined the New Horizons universe thanks to the brand-new features introduced with the 2.0 update.

Interestingly, some recent rumors suggest developers might plan another update to please their users. Continue reading to find out more about these rumors.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons fans disappointed as Nintendo teases a one-hour-long maintenance update for the game

Recently, Nintendo released a maintenance update for New Horizons and NookLink app. The maintenance update lasted for almost 50 minutes. Thus, players are expecting that developers’ reason for suddenly releasing a maintenance update might be related to an upcoming update.

However, to everyone’s surprise, developers didn’t release any major or minor updates, which made several users more suspicious.

The recent major system maintenance updates made players believe Nintendo is planning something for New Horizons behind the scenes. A YouTuber named SwitchForce proposed Nintendo should charge its New Horizons players for additional content. He mentioned that developers have already released much free content for their users.

Hence, they can release a DLC pack consisting of 4 new NPCs quest, 50 new storage slots, new critters, new outfits, new background music, and a Rainbow Cat. Indeed, it’s an interesting proposal, as several veterans quit ACNH because of the lack of in-game content. Therefore, if developers decide to release a paid DLC, it will benefit both Nintendo and ACNH die-hard fans.

Unfortunately, Nintendo teased a one-hour-long maintenance update and still introduced nothing. Although there are some rumors that developers might be planning something behind the scenes, it’s best to take it with a pinch of salt. What are your thoughts on the current state of New Horizons?
