    Animal Crossing: New Horizons Gets New Update Fixing Weird Egg Issue

    Game company Nintendo recently released a brand new update for popular video game Animal Crossing: New Horizons fixing a really odd issue that went viral.

    Animal Crossing: New Horizons new patch ends egg apocalypse

    The latest update, update 1.1.4, was recently released for AC: NH and has fixed the biggest problem that many players encountered before the patch. This issue was dubbed the egg apocalypse or shortened as “eggpocalypse” due to the frequent egg drops that players had during gameplay. It frustrated them to no end.

    The rate of the egg drops will now be lessened until April 11. On April 12, this specific item can now be collected easier and also coincides with Easter Sunday. This is coming from the Japanese patch notes, but was translated by the Twitter user below. English patch notes will be released at a later time.

    AC:NH version 1.1.4 is now available to download.

    – Fixes Flick not giving you the right model for the "Platinum Kogane" (can't find the English name for the bug, sorry!)

    – Adjusts rate of drops for some eggs until Apr 11th

    Aside from the adjustment of the egg drops, the update also fixed the issue that Flick would not give players the right model for the Platinum Kogane/ Scarab Beetle.

    The game is now available on Nintendo Switch.

    Thanks VG247, Nintendo Life.
