Nintendo has delighted fans by introducing Animal Crossing: New Horizons themes to its popular Sound Clock Alarmo device. This highly anticipated update is available for free, allowing players to wake up to the charming sounds and visuals of their favorite island life.

The Nintendo Alarmo has been a massive hit since its release, with demand so high that Nintendo had to adjust its distribution plans in Japan. While it initially featured themes from classics like Super Mario and The Legend of Zelda, the absence of Animal Crossing was noticeable—especially given the game's record-breaking success on the Nintendo Switch.

What's Included in the Update?

The new Animal Crossing theme brings a variety of wake-up sounds and idle visuals to the Alarmo. Players can now start their day with:

• Isabelle's morning stretches – A cheerful way to rise and shine.
• Dodo Airlines jingle – Perfect for those who dream of island getaways.
• Brewster's café ambiance – A cozy, coffee-fueled wake-up call.
• K.K. Slider's tunes – For music lovers who want a melodic start.
• Mr. Resetti's rescue service – A nostalgic throwback for long-time fans.

When the Alarmo is idle, players will see familiar faces like Tom Nook, Blathers, and the Nooklings displayed alongside the time.

How to Get the Update

To enjoy the new Animal Crossing content, Alarmo owners need to:

1. Connect the device to the internet.
2. Ensure their Nintendo Account is linked.
3. Download the free update.

Good news: A Nintendo Switch Online subscription is no longer required, making it accessible to all users.

Other Nintendo Themes Available

For those who prefer other Nintendo worlds, the Alarmo already offers themes from:

• Super Mario Odyssey
• The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
• Splatoon 2
• Pikmin 3
• Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

Nintendo is expected to roll out more updates, potentially adding franchises like Metroid in the future.
