Animal Crossing 3.0 Day One Guide: Slumber Islands, Hotels, and Exact Terraforming
The Animal Crossing: New Horizons 3.0 update introduces Slumber Islands for a Creative mode, a Seaside Hotel unlocked via Kapp’n, hotel-ticket rewards, Resetti’s reset services, expanded storage, Lego furniture, and a new precise terraforming system. Day one tips include checking mail for Slumber Islands, visiting and decorating the hotel rooms to earn tickets, using Resetti (first day free, then 60,000 bells per use), expanding storage at Resident Services, exploring Slumber Island for a pure creative sandbox, and learning the new one-square-at-a-time terraforming controls (hold L and move). You can also invite villagers via Amiibo and grab new items from Gram’s catalog.
