Animal Crossing New Horizons: All Year Sea Creature Guide!
Welcome back everyone to yet another Animal Crossing blog. Yup, we’re addicted to this game and as such, you’ll keep seeing blog after blog about what’s in the game and how to get the most out of the game. Sorry…but not really too sorry because this game has been awesome for fighting my depression and for helping to teach our son.
So on July 3rd I believe it was, we saw the 1.3 update for Animal Crossing and with it came swimming in the ocean (yeah thanks Tom… safe indeed…I keep catching Great White Sharks from my shore! I’ve seen Jaws numerous times you damn Racoon, we need to close the beaches!) Anyway, with the update also came diving to capture sea creatures that we can turn into the museum, sell, and even one we can give to a cool Otter named Pascal – and he will give us Mermaid DIY’s, Clothes and even Pearls! So that’s what this blog will be featuring, the sea creatures you can find all year long in both hemispheres.
