The patches continue for Animal Crossing: New Horizons and its Happy Home Paradise DLC. We’re into our second week for New Horizons’ Version 2.0 update and the launch of Happy Home Paradise, and Nintendo is still at it fixing a variety of errors and refining a few things (Nook Miles+ really, really loves The Roost – go figure). Following last week’s Version 2.0.1 update, it’s now replaced with Version 2.0.2.

Here’s what Nintendo fixed in this newest patch according to their Support site:

 

Ver. 2.0.2 (Released November 18, 2021)

  • The music for group stretching sometimes wouldn’t play if an audio device close to the plaza was playing music.
  • The Nook Miles+ activity “Visit the Roost for a Coffee Break” could appear multiple times in the same day.

Fixed Issues related to DLC

The following issues related to the paid DLC Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Happy Home Paradise have been fixed.

  • The software would close when the player tried to lead Leif to the school and the placement of the furniture items in the school met certain requirements.
  • Using amiibo multiple times to change the members used in a facility could cause the software to close.
  • The software could close when the player repeatedly used amiibo at a finished vacation home to add or remove guests.
  • The Y Button could stop removing guests when the player repeatedly used amiibo to add a guest and then remove the guest using the Y Button.
  • While working, a design portfolio photo could continue to display in the upper-left of the screen after speaking to a client on the north beach.
  • Bells would be spent in addition to Poki when the player ordered a present for another resident through Wardell.
  • The message card regarding refunding miles for the Pro Decorating License could be sent multiple times.
  • The roommates would not appear in a follow-up scene if their shared vacation home situation was ended while in the yard of their vacation home.

 

Given the massive scope of the Version 2.0 update and Happy Home Paradise DLC, weekly (or nearly weekly) patches might be the norm for a few months. For now, make sure to install the update before your next island visit.
