The first summer update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons arrived in early July . In it, among other things, bathing in the sea was most outstanding or striking for many. Now Nintendo releases the second summer update and the most interesting this time is in the references that some users have found digging into their guts, the code.
Dreams, fireworks and a copy of your island
The second summer update for Animal Crossing released on July 30 introduced interesting new features including fireworks shows and dreams. Although the most expected by many was the new option of backup and restoration of the island.
Fireworks shows are events that will take place every Sunday in August at 7:00 p.m. These will illuminate the sky of your island and you can customize them through your own design pattern that you have created and that will be launched as a firework.
Dreams, on the other hand, are a new option that allow you to take a nap in any bed in your house and while you do so, you can find yourself in a new place where Alakama will receive you and give you the opportunity to visit other islands through your dreams. In those “trips” while you sleep you will have the possibility to investigate other islands without fear of doing something you shouldn’t, because there nothing will be permanent. So, walk without fear as many as you want and share yours so that others also visit you while they sleep.
Of course, the most expected of all was the backup service . From now on, Nintendo Switch Online users will be eligible for the island save feature. This will allow them to restore it in case something happens to the console. For example, that it gets damaged and you have to send it to the technical service, that you lose it or any other situation that involves loss of data.
Thanks to this function you can restore it without problems and continue exactly where you were going the last time you kept a copy of your island and its inhabitants.
Sewing and cooking, the next thing that could come
If all these news were interesting to you, pay attention to the following. In a title like Animal Crossing: New Horizons you have to continually think about how to keep attracting players so they want to spend a little time each day at least. Therefore, it is normal that references to what would be next to arrive have already been found in the code of this new update.
According to user Ninji , these are the reference codes found:
- New type of object called ’35_Gyroid’
- ‘VgtTomato’, ‘VgtWheat’, ‘VgtSugarCane’, ‘VgtPotato’, ‘VgtCarrot’, ‘VgtSquash’
- Hidden references to sewing and cooking topics
Data miners have seen how certain references are made in the code that give clues about new activities that insulans and insulans will be able to do on their islands. On the one hand there are all those codes that are related to food and that would indicate that cooking would be one of the new activities that you can do. The second seems to be more sewing oriented, so you would have even more freedom when creating your own textile pieces.
Interesting? We think so, at least they are a new incentive for all those who continue to spend time a day in one of the most popular games in recent months and revolution during the weeks of confinement.
