Animal Crossing: New Horizons patch 1.4.0 is live, bringing the Dream Suite, the fireworks nights, and a very useful camera glitch.
The past Camera App Glitch allowing you to remove the HUD has now been added as a native feature in Version 1.4 of Animal Crossing: New Horizons! Simply press in the right analog stick to remove the user interface. Thank you Nintendo!! #ACHH pic.twitter.com/wGC0xVhV0z

This is Wave 2 of the summer updates for Animal Crossing New Horizons. Wave 1 added swimming and diving to the game, which let players hoik marine life out of the ocean to hand to Blathers. Wave 2 sees fireworks shows every Sunday evening in August, and Redd will appear to peddle his wares in a raffle. In addition, Luna’s Dream Suite will invite players to dream islands, which are the islands of other random players. Nothing is saved in the Dream Suite, so players may open their islands without fear of losing their money trees or their golden roses.
Yet, there is one extra addition that players have welcomed back. In an earlier version of the game, it was possible to turn off the UI when using the Nook Phone’s camera app. This “feature” was unintentional, and was scrubbed from the game in a patch earlier this month. But, now, it’s back! This is music to the ears of content creators in the Animal Crossing community, as it allows a cleaner and less busy recording or snapshot. All they need to do is click the right stick (as long as they aren’t playing using just the left Joy-Con in horizontal mode).
Animal Crossing: New Horizons is out now for Nintendo Switch.
