The seasons have changed in both hemispheres Animal Crossing: New Horizons and that has brought some changes. In the Northern Hemisphere, the month of June marks summer and players can indulge in a number of activities.

The wedding season has started and players can visit Harvey's Island to help Reese and Cyrus on their wedding anniversary. It lasts until the end of June. In addition, a number of new beetles and fish are available that can be caught in the summer months.

In addition, players can also collect unique seasonal materials known as summer shells to create seasonal DIY recipes. However, there is a caveat. For players from the Northern Hemisphere Islands, summer shells are only available in the summer months, i.e. from June to August (December to February in the Southern Hemisphere).
