A new Animal Crossing patch fixes a major DLC bug
Version 2.0.1 fixes issues when trying to remodel villagers’ homes
Nintendo has released a new update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons which fixes a number of bugs.
The most notable of these was an issue in the Happy Home Paradise DLC which led to issues in a specific situation.
If players asked Tom Nook about remodelling a resident’s home while their airport gates were open, this would cause “gameplay issues” that were serious enough that Nintendo posted a message on Twitter asking players not to do it.
This issue is now one of the numerous bugs that have been fixed in the new patch.
The full list of fixes for the game are below.
