I've played Animal Crossing: New Horizons for 700 hours, and the 3.0 update left me wanting more in the best kind of way

Haven’t you heard? The Animal Crossing: New Horizons 3.0 update is here. One of the most popular Nintendo Switch games has just gotten a bunch of new content, and best of all, it’s free to those who already own the game — and available to both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 players.

Last week, I checked out the Animal Crossing: New Horizons Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, a paid update that adds a few new features exclusively to Nintendo Switch 2 players. Now, it’s time to take a look at the good stuff in the free content update. There’s a new hotel, improved quality of life, Slumber Islands and more. I’m a big Animal Crossing fan myself, so I’m excited to share my thoughts on everything the 3.0 update entails.
