Welcome to a special episode of Haken: An Animal Crossing Podcast. Today, we discuss the 3.0 update for Animal Crossing New Horizons. We're so surprised to see actual news for the game and decided it was time to record a new episode to talk about it. We're not officially back but we plan to fully return when a new Animal Crossing game is announced. For now, enjoy our thoughts on the update and we'll see you again after we get our hands on impressions on January 15th when the update releases.Dedicated Haken ChannelsYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGh6vllsX0Lri35D7i8830gInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/hakenpodcast/Join the Haken Discord: https://discordapp.com/invite/wJTCMRKFind Haken: An Animal Crossing Podcast on Podcast Platforms here:https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/haken-an-animal-crossing-podcast/Follow Chuy on...Intagram: https://www.instagram.com/chuyplaysntdo/BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/chuyplaysntdo.bsky.socialTwitch: http://www.twitch.tv/chuyplaysnintendoFollow Nina on...Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/miss.nina.art/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1vZVkN0ZuzIvlNOysBUgOw

It's Bunny Day season this week in Animal Crossing New Horizons. To celebrate, we do a deep dive into the bunny villagers in Animal Crossing. Afterwards, we talk about why Bunny Day is actually the best holiday in Animal Crossing. From there, we talk about what we'd like holidays to do in the future Animal Crossing games. Finally, we ask our patrons what they would like added to the game to improve accessibility.

This is an incredibly important episode of Haken. Sergio will be taking a break from the show for an undetermined amount of time. We see him off with a special guest, a ton of great topics, and our love. We understand his need to take time off and focus on his mental health. This week, Tumeg joins us to discuss her art for the show. From there, we get to know her a bit and her background in Animal Crossing. We talk about the new Animal Crossing icons that are available on Switch. Finally, we get into how Animal Crossing can improve through additional accessibility features. After that, we get a special message from Sergio. We close out the show by asking our patrons what they find fun about Animal Crossing.

Why is Animal Crossing fun? It's a concept that is hard to grasp from the outside. Today, Nina, Sergio and I discuss the different aspects of Animal Crossing that make it a fun game. I go over what I liked about the game in the past and what I enjoy now. Sergio does the same but also includes some aspects that have remained true throughout the series. Nina talks about how she enjoys a lot of the same things she enjoyed when she first started. Finally, we ask our patrons about their favorite memories in year two of New Horizons.
