Make sure to plant all these bushes before their respective dates. This will help you see them in full bloom on the first day and vibe with the summer theme.

Aesthetic changes in Animal Crossing: New Horizons

The new season will introduce some exciting changes in the aesthetics of ACNH. First, the grass will become darker and more saturated as the months go by. In August, players will see the grass being fully saturated.

Indeed, this will help you feel like you are basically living in a tropical paradise with so much greenery all around you. In addition to that, trees will also become darker and weeds growing all over your island will change into different colors with each passing month during this season.

Bugs, fishes, and sea creatures

In New Horizons, bugs, fishes, and sea creatures migrate on a monthly basis. During summer, players will see sharks making their way on the shores and they can make a great profit by catching them, so don’t miss out on this exclusive deal.

Surprisingly, if you are not interested in selling them to get an enormous amount of bells, you can still collect them to add them to the museum. Moreover, you will see some rare beetles on the palm trees of your island; however, they are very rare and you won’t find them more often. You will even find some new sea creatures to add to your collection or sell them to Nook’s Cranny.

The Summer Shells are only seasonal items and can only be found during summer. The best way to find them is to walk all along your island’s beaches at least once per day to see if any have spawned.
