Celebrate the start of the new year!
It’s officially 2021! Even though the New Year’s Day holiday has already come and gone for another year, you can still celebrate the arrival of 2021 in Animal Crossing: New Horizons by collecting a series of New Year’s Day items.
There are seven New Year’s Day items available to collect, which are related to some of the different New Year’s celebrations held around the world: 2021 Celebratory Arch, Olivier Salad, Zodiac Ox Figurine, Kagamimochi, Kadomatsu, New Year’s Shimekazari, and Yut Nori.
Here’s how to collect all seven of these items in Animal Crossing: New Horizons!
Head into the Resident Services building and interact with the Nook Stop terminal.
Select “Nook Shopping.” (Remember, if you’ve unlocked the Nook Shopping app on your NookPhone, you can access the Nook Shopping catalog from anywhere.)
Now choose “Special Goods.”
Press “L” on your controller to go to the Seasonal Items tab.
Highlight the item you want to purchase and press “A” to select it.
Here are the prices for these items:
If you want to purchase an item for yourself, or to send to someone at a later time, choose “Place Order.” If you want to send the item to a friend instantly, choose “Send as Gift.” Remember, if you select “Place Order,” you won’t receive the item you’ve purchased until the next day.
These New Year’s Day items will only be available to purchase until January 15.
Happy New Year!
