2021 gave us a huge update for Animal Crossing New Horizons near the end of the year, but we weren't sure if it was really going to happen. Last year, we started off by discussing our hopes for New Horizons. Today, we take a look at what we hoped would happen to the game and see if any of it actually came true. After that, we discuss our new years resolutions around Animal Crossing. Finally, we ask our patrons what their Animal Crossing resolutions are for the year.

This past week was Toy Day in Animal Crossing New Horizons. Before we get into the details about that event, we start the show with some ice breakers and a story from Sergio. Sergio tells us about a funny little discovery regarding turnips. From there, we get in deep with Toy Day and talk about our playtime during that event. We also give some fun little details about that activity. After that, we discuss Animal Crossing merch and how it is treated in different parts of the world. Finally, we ask our patrons what summer and winter activities they'd like added to Animal Crossing in the future.

This week on Haken, we've all got some nice little stories about our playtime during the week. We each take a turn to talk about the goings on around our islands and what trouble ensues! After that we go into our big discussion for the week and what we wish was in New Horizons. Now that we know Animal Crossing New Horizons has gotten its final major update, we have a clear idea of how the game looks. We go in depth with what we wish it could've had and what the series could do going into the future. Finally, we pose a question for our patrons to answer for next week's episode of the show.

There was a surprising cute event added to Animal Crossing New Horizons called Nook Friday Sale! This inspired us to look at the upcoming happenings in the month of December. We go over what to look out for and all the new things you'll be able to collect. From there, Nina tells us all about the Beautiful Statue. After that, we answer a lot of the recent Haken Islander Corner Questions. Haken Islander Corner will return to normal next week and we'll have our patrons answer questions again.

Nintendo has updated Animal Crossing New Horizons twice since the 2.0 update. It appears the game is running into several bugs and it makes sense since the update was so large. Today, we go over the fixes that have been made to the game thus far. After that, we talk about the upcoming Turkey Day event and give some advice to players who are going to be experiencing the event for the first time. From there, we give an update about how we're doing with the Happy Home Paradise DLC. Finally, we ask our patrons what surprises they've found in the game that weren't mentioned in the Nintendo Direct.

The Animal Crossing New Horizons Direct confirmed a lot of characters would be coming to New Horizons once the update hits. We decided to take a look at all the special characters and villagers that will be making their debut to the game. The special characters will provide some new activities and gameplay features for us to enjoy while the villagers will provide more personality around our islands. We discuss their history in the series and give the few details we know about their role in New Horizons. We also ask our Patreon supporters who their favorite villagers are.
