Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the fish and insects of September

Let's officially say goodbye to summer, September has arrived and with it the new fish and insects (and sea creatures) that will be catchable in Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Monthly appointment with our Animal Crossing: New Horizons wildlife expansion (or reduction) guide. The summer is practically over, as is the string of summer events that Nintendo had prepared for the players of its current spearhead. From the fireworks festival to the Volpolo lottery, lour island has been colored and decorated with new objects, clothes and consumables. But September is coming, and so it's time to say goodbye to the evenings on the beach to welcome the falling leaves and the darkening trees. And, even finally we would dare to say, there will also be welcome news for those who play in the southern hemisphere. You have not been forgotten by God Nintendo, rest assured. 



Autumn and rogue nostalgia 

Before leaving with our guide on the fish and insects (and sea creatures) of September in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, we remind you that here on Holygamerz you can find the review of the latest Nintendo effort. You can also find a long series of guides on the title, for example how to build stairs to climb to the top, how to jump and travel in time, how to plant star trees, how to make a bunch of stars with turnips, our guide to colors of the various balloons, how to use the shooting stars and our guide for Pasqualo and the mermaid set and much, much more. Also find guides for what Florindo and Volpolo sell, above all, how to poop. You can also see what the fish and insects were last month, August, at this link! Let's proceed, shipped, away!
