Nintendo Download: Eggs Mark the Spot in Animal Crossing: New Horizons!

Celebrate Easter, or “Bunny Day” as they call it, in Animal Crossing: New Horizons this week. If you’re looking for something else though, uh…

Bunny Day!

Easter isn’t much of a holiday this year. I think that’s fair to say, since most of the globe is afraid to even set foot outside of their homes. But even so, there’s a way for Nintendo fans to have a little fun thanks to Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

The just-released game is hosting a special event for the holiday, under the Bunny Day title. So what is it? Well, Zipper T Bunny has arrived on the island, and will be hiding eggs. But these are no mere collectibles, as the eggs will allow finders to “create special items, including furniture, flooring, décor and accessories”.

The special event is on now, and will run through the 12th of the month, which is Easter Sunday. So you have some time to go hunting, but not a ton.

Other than that, there are also some sales on this week, as well as a host of fresh additions to the eShop. Unfortunately, there’s really nothing noteworthy. Check the full list below.

• Animal Crossing: New Horizons Bunny Day Event – Hippity skippity, hoppity ho! Just in time for the season, the bright Zipper T Bunny has begun visiting islands for a limited time. The energetic visitor will be hiding eggs around islands that allow residents to create special items, including furniture, flooring, décor and accessories. There are only a few more days left to find those eggs before the event ends on April 12, so get hopping and craft those seasonal DIY projects! Hop-hop-hooray!
