How to Avoid Bugs While Remodeling Resident’s Homes in Animal Crossing: New Horizons 2.0

Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Shortly after the Happy Home Paradise DLC went live, some players have encountered gameplay bugs when visiting the Resident Services and asking to remodel a resident’s home, forcing them to quit the game and start over from their last save.

Today, Nintendo acknowledged these gameplay bugs, confirming they only happen when you ask to remodel a resident’s home when the gates at the airport are open.

While the bugs will be fixed in a future update, Nintendo also provided a simple workaround to not trigger these gameplay bugs. All players need to do is avoid asking to remodel a resident’s home while the gates at the airport are open. In case the issues are triggered, closing the game and relaunching it will be more than enough to fix them, as your save file will not be affected.

When Will the Animal Crossing: New Horizons Remodeling Resident’s Homes Be Fixed?

At the time, Nintendo hasn’t specified when the next Animal Crossing: New Horizons including a fix for these bugs will be released. Given how annoying it can be, it shouldn’t take too long. For the time being, follow the workaround detailed above and you will be fine.
