Nintendo always has multiple updates or events to release for their games. Undoubtedly, they also came up with a Christmas event for Animal Crossing: New Horizons. It is the second best-selling game for the Switch console. Fans adore this game, but there is lately a lot of hate for it.

Many ACNH and Nintendo fans believe New Horizons have already died or is extremely close to its death. The reason for these speculations is the lack of updates. Since the game came out in 2020, Nintendo didn’t release many updates for the game, which led to these scenarios. Now it’s affecting the latest event.

The Nintendo game has announced via its official account the special Christmas event, Toy Day. This event takes place in December and is based on the tradition where someone dresses up as Santa clause to distribute presents to the kids. The players also take on the role of Santa on this day.
