Animal Crossing: New Horizons Players Are Celebrating Bunny Day With Eggs and New Items

Animal Crossing: New Horizons just got its first big limited-time event since launch now that Bunny Day is live, an event which has all the islanders celebrating with tons of eggs being found and items to be crafted. The Bunny Day event was announced a while back with more details on it shared during Nintendo's recent mini-Direct which announced the dates for the event that's live now until April 12th. That means one week of finding colorful eggs everywhere you look in New Horizons and crafting items from a series that'll only be available for a while, and players are already making the most of the occasion.

Once you download the latest update for New Horizons, you'll find that your island looks a bit different than it did before. Some new trees have appeared to brighten up the area, and during your normal, day-to-day New Horizons activities like digging holes, fishing, and shaking trees, you'll be finding a ton of eggs.

You can use these eggs to fulfil the requirements of different recipes that have been added to the game as part of the event. These recipes include everything from wreaths to bags to outfits for your characters, so you'll want to get as many eggs as possible during the event.
