Animal Crossing New Horizons features many engaging activities for the players. After settling down on their island, they have a choice between taking things easy or jumping into whatever they want to do. Some may prefer farming, while others will frequent the vendors to seek out offers on sale. Others may take to fishing as well. In keeping with tradition, Animal Crossing New Horizons, players can seek out various aquatic life forms from the game’s rivers and oceans.
A surprisingly high number of fish and other marine life are to be discovered worldwide. However, as with many Animal Crossing New Horizons elements, they can be seasonal. In other words, certain critters are only encountered during specific periods of the year. Here is a list to help players find the fish they want to track down.
All fishes found in Animal Crossing New Horizons across both hemispheres
It should be noted that while all 80 fishes on this list appear in both hemispheres, they all cyclically spawn for a handful of months each year, depending on where players reside.
