Another glorious month is coming to an end, insinuating that a wide array of critters will arrive in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

New Horizons was a surprise entry among all the titles that came out last year. It attempts to stay true to real life events. For instance, the critters that appear in the game migrate in and out periodically.

The arrival or departure of the critters depends on the season in the respective hemispheres. Just like in real life, these critters are available only during specific hours and at specific locations.

With June just around the corner, a wide array of critters will make their way into the game. Similarly, with May coming to an end, a few will leave the Animal Crossing island and won't reappear until next year.

As usual, a new month will also bring with it a range of rare critters. These can be sold for lucrative profits, but considering that they're rare, getting a hold of them is always going to be an uphill task. Selling rare critters is one of many ways to generate income in New Horizons.

Other than that, players can also donate rare critters to the Museum, which will help them to complete exhibits and the NookPhone critterpedia.

The following is a list of the critters that will be leaving at the end of May and the ones that will be arriving in June in Animal Crossing.
