This is a guide to Setsubun Event, a Japan traditional event in Animal Crossing: New Horizons (ACNH) for the Nintendo Switch. Read on to learn when Setsubun Event starts, as well as what you can do during the event, and the new seasonal costumes and items you can get!

Animal Crossing New Horizons Setsubun Event & Release Date

Setsubun event is based on the real-world event that happens on February 2nd in Japan. This event was previously only available in Japan back in Animal Crossing New Leaf, but here in New Horizons, it can be enjoyed by players all around the world, which is super exciting. There are some new items that you can unlock for this event until February 3rd, as a part of new February seasonal items in Animal Crossing New Horizons.

ACNH Setsubun Themed Items

In the real world, Setsubun is a long tradition in Japan in which beans would be thrown at evil spirits to help ward them away, that's exactly why you're able to toss these beans around in Animal Crossing. These are demons known as Oni but in the English version of the game, they're called Ogres. To celebrate the Japanese holiday, there are new limited-time items are available to collect for players.

1. Bean Tossing Kit

How To Get: Purchase from Nook Shopping store for 800 bells

Available Time: January 28th to February 3rd

The most exciting item that you can get for the Setsubun event is the Bean Tossing Kit which you can purchase from the Nook Shopping app, this is a new type of holdable item which is returning to Animal Crossing New Horizons. It doesn't serve any practical use and basically just a bit of fun like with most of the other holdable items in the game, but you can throw beans at your villages if you'd like to. It's actually kind of addictive.

2. Ogre Costumes & Masks

How To Get: Purchase from Able Sisters store with bells

Available Time: January 28th to February 3rd

List of all Ogre Costumes:

Blue Horned-Ogre Mask (1,120 bells)

Red Horned-Ogre Mask (1,120 bells)

Green Horned-Ogre Mask (1,120 bells)

Blue Ogre Costume (1,600 bells)

Red Ogre Costume (1,600 bells)

Green Ogre Costume (1,600 bells)

Okame Mask (1,120 bells)

So there are new Ogre costumes are available to collect. If you want to unlock the Orge Costumes to celebrate this event, they'll be available starting February 1st from Able Sisters fitting room. You won't be able to see these items out on the main show floor so don't fret if you don't see them immediately, you'll be able to unlock them all via the fitting room. You can get the main outfit in red, green, and blue and also get red, green, and blue masks to pair with the rest of the outfit. 

You can also get a hold of the Okame mask too which is apparently a lucky symbol for long life, so if you want to balance out the bad luck from being a literal demon slash ogre then you could put on this mask too. Like with the bean tossing kit, these are only available for a limited amount of time, so make sure you get them before it's too late. And if you miss the right time to get them from in-game stores, no worries, you can fast to buy new Animal Crossing Items from Goldkk.Com.
