Animal Crossing: New Horizons revealed what free gear players would be getting with the upcoming free update. Festivale is the next big event coming up and February 15th is the big release day. To celebrate, players will be gifted maracas free of charge to get things going. Nintendo says the festivities will be “filled with dancing and flying feathers.” Pave, a friendly peacock, is the NPC who will be walking users through their Festivale experiences. Carnivale traditions and celebrations always deliver tremendous imagery, it will be interesting to see what different players do to their islands to help celebrate the new event. As the proposed pickup, feathers will be dropping from the sky in the same way that snowflakes do now. If you gather enough of them, you can craft some delightful items for your home or town.
All players who download the new #AnimalCrossing: New Horizons update will receive Maracas as a gift in the mailbox in game. Use it during the Festivale event to express your festival spirit! Viva! Festivale! pic.twitter.com/j8czanliXJ
