I noticed the diving gear in the Museum and wondered if this was only set dressing. The datamine has dredged up code pertaining to diving and sea creatures, which was a feature in New Leaf. And, an unused shop interface titled “cGardening” has been uncovered, and would apparently work like the Nook Miles menu of rewards. New Horizons does make use of seasonal recipes, and perhaps there could be pumpkin dishes for the autumnal months. Animal Crossing has never featured cooking before, but it had never featured crafting before, either. Moreover, references to vegetables and cooking have been seen, including tomato, potato, carrot, pumpkin, wheat, and sugar.

Two more foliage options, camellia and osmathus, were also found in New Horizons code. Thirdly, azalea, hibiscus, holly, and hydrangea bushes will be available, like they were in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. It is possible that the pieces he sells are forgeries, which may be why he would keep his distance from Tom Nook at the edge of the island. Apparently, he will dock onto the secret beach with his own ship to sell artwork and sculptures to the player. This area of the map is specifically named “Nã¤ããã¡,” which is Redd’s name in Japanese. A con artist, he would weigh anchor at the small “secret” beach that all players have at the very back of their island. The art gallery would be supplemented by the reappearance of Redd. Other than Lloid, Gyroids are absent from New Horizons, and they would add an extra layer to those wonderful island sing-a-longs.

The Museum Café, presumably run by Brewster the barista, would also feature a Gyroid shop. These two buildings are the Museum Shop and a Museum Café, which would return from earlier games in the series. This is alongside the expansion for an art gallery (more on this in a moment). As a result, we should take this report as a rumour.įirstly, the datamine alleges that there are two more buildings to be added onto the island’s Museum. They could be artefacts of an earlier iteration of New Horizons, and were accidentally left behind by the developers. We must be careful, though, because the presence of these additions in the game’s code doesn’t necessarily infer that they are in development.

Some of this might make it into the Earth Day update, some might change before releaseĪnimal Crossing dataminer Ninji was the one to uncover the following features. I’ve not posted much about this, but I think it’s a good time to share some secrets about unreleased features in Animal Crossing that game code hints at… An extensive Animal Crossing: New Horizons datamine has unveiled a lot of possible features for the social sim game, like add-ons for the Museum, harvesting vegetables, and the return of Redd (via Animal Crossing World).
