Animal Crossing: New Horizons glitches seem to be coming in thick and fast these days. In recent times, we've seen a couple of item duplication glitches, one that could bug plots of land, and even one that prevented balloons from appearing. Now, we have yet another one to check out, and this one will no doubt lead to a new swarm of social media snaps.
YouTube user StephenPlays has shared details of a glitch which lets your player character go out of bounds, allowing you to walk over rooftops and even in the sea. To pull it off, all you need is a chair that you can sit on from multiple sides and an object that you can grab on to while sitting down. You'll need a second player to fly over to your island, too.
You can see how it all plays out in the video below. The process involves some precise chair placement (just one pull away from your target building or water) but it all seems relatively simple to do. Note that the only building this won't work with is Resident Services, as you can't place items close enough to its walls.
Nintendo has patched out some of the glitches found previously, so it's possible that this little trick won't be possible forever. If you like the sound of getting some barmy photo ops within the game, you should probably give this a go sooner rather than later.
What will they find next?

This game just can't stop delivering the goods. It's a social media miracle. I could literally write an Animal Crossing article everyday for the rest of my life.
I was wondering if anyone else had seen this yet. It is pretty nifty, although as some people pointed out, if Nintendo patches this, you could very well lose any items on the 4th tier due to no longer being able to access them. Also , StephenPlays is a good channel, guy is pretty chill.
Interesting. Funny too of course! I wonder if this means we will eventually be able to use that fourth level? I find it very odd that we can build but not use it.
This makes me wish that the fourth level could be climbed.
The warning should be "you can't build any higher", not "you can't climb any higher", because right now that fourth level is completely useless for terraforming. You can't even make it part of a waterfall.
this was possible before with another glitch: https://twitter.com/MrOrdun/status/1247271338504368128
you can build/move your house there as well.
It would be nice if they’d acknowledge and patch the save game corruption glitch. It happened to me 3 times and could happen to you as well!
Wow, I can’t wait to....nah, I’ll skip this one.
Spent over fifty hours on the game so far and still have barely scratched the surface. I’m trying to save enough bells to pay off my home - on the 1,250,000 stage, before that final upgrade, and saved around half of this. Then the fun can begin!
I always wanted to be jesus in animal crossing
This one seems pretty useful for those that have annoying 3rd level cliffs with objects on top.
Man this new sea exploration update is looking real good.
aw looks like this glitch is a lot more complicated to set up than the out-of-bounds glitch in NL. i think id rather just watch people do this trick than try it out myself
i got the glitch to work without a second player visiting my town; at least for when walking on water. too bad my character gets stuck and needs to call for help after more than two steps into the water. its just too bad there isn't a drowning animation for this glitch for when our characters figure out how to walk on water.
now we just have to learn how to fish while walking on water...lol
Okay, now this exploit is just cute.

Awww poor you.
@status-204 lol, whatever you wanna do kid. You're the one who said he was tired of my comments, you're the one who went out of your way. If picking an argument with every random person you disagree with is what you consider the adult way of behaving, I imagine you have a really unpleasant life.
Shoutouts to Stephen and Mal though. Funny people - I've been watching for years. Glitch videos or guides are about 0.00001 percent of what Stephen does (although he did figure out how the focus on the New Horizons camera works on Twitter). His LPs of Chulip, Mario Kart, Twilight Princess, and Mario Sunshine with Mal are personal favorites. He does a daily LP episode, a daily Mario Maker level on weekdays using a community ranking site that's way better than Mario Maker's search tools for finding good levels (that series is past episode 1000), a weekly impression of the first half hour or so of a game, a weekly gaming stream, a breakfast talk stream twice a week, a daily life vlog that's been going for over a decade, and Mal runs a channel called MalMakes where she paints video game art in a Bob Ross style format with relaxing music and commentary. Most recent addition is an Animal Crossing fruit still-life. And between the work they put into their Extra Life stream and the Runaway Guys Colosseum stream, they raise a lot for charities.
Games are so easy to break, I actually have to go out of my way to not break games that I play because it always ends up happening somehow or somewhere lol.
