As someone who has 'time traveled' a lot in ACNH, it's super easy but comes with risks. Changing your Switch's date and time might get you to tomorrow's event faster, or let you catch that out-of-season fish, but it can also upset your villagers, spawn lots of weeds, and mess with your turnip prices. Use with caution and maybe not too often if you really care about your island life.
You can't technically 'fast forward' time in Animal Crossing: New Horizons like you might in a video, but you can change the system clock on your Nintendo Switch. Go to your Switch's System Settings, find 'Date and Time,' and turn off the option to synchronize clock via internet. Then, you can manually set the date and time to whatever you want. This can help you skip ahead or even go back in time in the game, but be careful鈥攎essing with time can have some quirky effects on your island!
Nah, just play the game as it's meant to be played. Time traveling can mess up your island's natural progression. Plus, waiting for things to happen is part of the charm!
