In a cool little bit of cross-promotion, Animal Crossing: New Horizons players will soon be treated to a free Ring-Con from Ring Fit Adventure to display in-game.
Perfect for placing inside your living room next to the already-available Switch and TV combo, the Ring-Con will be given to all players who download the game's free, upcoming fall update. It's a nice touch, especially for anyone who does actually have a Ring-Con sitting about in the real home.
If you missed the news earlier today, Animal Crossing Switch consoles and amiibo cards are also making a comeback – in North America, at least.
The fall update, which grants you access to this Ring-Con item, goes live on 30th September. Make sure to boot up the game from that date and claim your free gift!

I don’t have either, I guess I need to check both of them out eventually.
So, do we get the leg strap with the November update?
It should be added with DDR Metal pad for Home version. 😆
Nice! I'm looking forward to the update.
How did she end up with two red joycons?
I like the idea of having the player set up a pumpkin patch to grow pumpkins for the special seasonal furniture instead of the easter eggs fiasco
Haha that's sweet
...the real version isn't that big is it?
Woah, that’s actually extremely cool! I’m gonna put it in my workout room upstairs when the update releases!
I can't get over how creepy and weird the ring con is talking about your sweat lol
@Kimyonaakuma
The real question you should be asking is whether the Animal Crossing characters are that small? 😉
Is there any time limit on the gift? I intend to download the update, but I haven’t booted up ACNH since before downloading the summer update so at this point when I finally do I’m not going to be able to just jump back into the game; I’ve probably got several days of weeding, schmoozing and general maintenance to do just to get my island and its inhabitants back to a passable state - and, honestly, that’s one of the things that’s put me off from jumping back in at all.
I really ought to try Ring Fit at some point. But it just seems like you need so much room to play the game and I don't have a big empty space to play it.
@Anti-Matter A crossover with DDR would be pretty cool honestly. But they'd need to work with DDR's publishers, and there hasn't been a DDR game on Switch yet, so it seems unlikely. I blame Konami.
Oh great, yeah, now that prices have come back down to Earth they're giving it for free. You get one free. You get one free. EVERYONE GETS ONE FOR FREE!!!! During the height of the pandemic, I bet the twins would have paid several million Bells just to get their hands on one! Thanks, Nintendo. Pfftt.
@ChessboardMan touchè, well played.
@Northwind My assumption is once the update is downloaded, it'll probably automatically show up in your mailbox like most of the other gifts tend to.
@Shamrock It sounds like all ACNH players will get one, provided they download the update. So it doesn't appear you need to own or have owned Ring Fit Adventure
@Heavyarms55
You really don’t. You can play it in a pretty small room. I tried.
@WickedUnicarnBoi you missing out
Time to exercise my character to make them lose some fat
@Tommy-and-Timmy Maybe I should just cave and try it.
Yes! Ring Fit Adventure is currently my most played Switch game, followed by Animal Crossing.
