Before the game’s release, there was a lot of anticipation that the shrewd art dealer Crazy Redd would be hawking his wares in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
After the update version 1.2.0, Crazy Redd made his return, and he also brought with him the option to extend your museum with an astounding art display.
To add insult to injury, Redd is now available on a daily basis by going to Harv’s island plaza and activating his mobile store. Despite the fact that his daily selection is more restricted, it appears that finishing your museum art gallery is more feasible than it has ever been.
