It’s a new month, which means the debut of the new Animal Crossing: New Horizons June Bugs and Fish Guide. It is going to be all change this month dear reader, so I do hope you are ready.

In the Northern Hemisphere, it’s the summer time when the weather is fine, with your islands about to experience a burst of catchable activity across all categories. Meanwhile those in the Southern Hemisphere are going to be walking in a winter wonderland as snow will start to fall. So too will the number of Bugs, Fish, and Deep-Sea creatures that will be available over the next few months.

All in all the pace is starting to pick up in the Northern Hemisphere. We are only just starting to get in to Summer and in the coming months there is going to be a boom of new creatures to catch. Especially when it comes to Bugs and Fish. So try to catch this month’s new arrivals whilst you still can. Otherwise you’ll be spending August rushing to catch everything! In the meantime, let’s see what is happening with our friends in the Southern Hemisphere.
