Easter is less than a week away and tends to bring the hope of spring, rebirth, and above all else, chocolate. But if you're spending a lot of time on your Animal Crossing: New Horizons island at the moment, you may well have found that the impending holiday is becoming just a little bit tedious.
If you've been effected by an over-abundance of seasonal treasures in the form of hidden eggs then you'll be glad to hear that the end is in sight - today, in fact. As spotted by Kotaku, an update has been rolled out to address the issue which has seen far too many of the little blighters populating islands. The problem was so prevalent that players were being hindered from getting normal resources because they were being replaced by eggs.
The patch notes, which were released today, read, "During the Easter event, the appearance rate of some eggs has been adjusted until April 11, 2020."
Ever since the Bunny Day event started last week, players have been finding eggs everywhere. And while hunting for Easter eggs is part of the traditional festivities surrounding the holiday, Animal Crossing seems to have taken it to the extreme, with the apparent drop rate of eggs being far too high. But the update which should be live today and will reduce the number of eggs that you can find until Easter Sunday (April 12), when the number will be increased again for the actual holiday.
The Bunny Day event allows you to find different types of eggs across your island. They can be found in the ocean and rivers, floating in the sky, or buried underground. Once collected, they can then be used to craft limited-time Bunny Day items.
In related news, the team here at GAMINGbible recently did a round-up of their top games so far for 2020. And it will probably be no surprise to anyone that Animal Crossing: New Horizons came in as the favourite for the majority of the team.
