Here is just a snippet from Nintendo regarding this update:
In the Animal Crossing™: New Horizons game, time moves along just like in real life. This means that seasons will change, different bugs and fish may hang out on your island, and some fun events are on the horizon. Whether you experienced these events last year or will experience them for the first time this year, here’s a rundown of what’s happening in the next couple months.
To participate in the events, you’ll need to download a free update available on April 28th. We’ll talk about that a little later in the article if you need some help!
