Animal Crossing: New Horizons Is Adding Japanese Setsubun Seasonal Items

Yesterday, Nintendo announced a new update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons will be arriving this week on 28th January.

In addition to Festivale, new reactions and new clothing, there’ll also be a bunch of seasonal events. First up, is the Japanese tradition of Setsubun. To celebrate this occasion, there’ll be a Bean-Tossing Kit available until 3rd February. There’ll also be an Oni (Orge) costume at the Able Sisters from 1st February.

This same event was previously available in Animal Crossing: New Leaf on the 3DS. It seems you can now also throw beans inside villagers’ homes. Learn more about the next big Animal Crossing: New Horizons update in our previous post.
