In the tranquil world of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, one player has found a hilariously spiteful way to deal with the game's most notorious catch—the Sea Bass. While fishing is a beloved activity in this life simulation game, the constant appearance of Sea Bass instead of rare fish has driven players to creative extremes.

The latest update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons on the Nintendo Switch 2 has reignited interest in the game, allowing players to transfer their meticulously crafted islands to the new console. Amidst this revival, a Reddit user shared their unique method of 'punishing' Sea Bass by releasing them into freshwater, sparking a trend among fellow players.

The community quickly embraced this idea, sharing their own inventive ways to torment the unlucky fish. From placing them in tanks near the ocean to trapping them in ponds, players have turned their frustration into a form of in-game humor. While New Horizons doesn’t allow harm to creatures, these lighthearted acts of revenge have become a quirky tradition.

With rumors of a new Animal Crossing title on the horizon, fans are eagerly awaiting what Nintendo has in store. Meanwhile, New Horizons continues to thrive, ranking as one of the best-selling games on the Switch with over 47 million copies sold. Its enduring popularity proves that even after five years, the game still captivates players with its charm and creativity.
