Animal Crossing Pocket Camp has hit its players with event after event. Most recently, the Rover’s Garden Safari event got players to go big on their gardens. Players were also encouraged to interact with their friends’ gardens by sharing special event butterflies in exchange for unique flowers in order to obtain limited Rover-themed furniture rewards. The Pocket Camp team also teased a major update that includes clothing crafting and even dressing your own campers.

But the new Winter Sports update came out of nowhere with a bevy of winter-themed furniture, clothes, and also includes a new amenity. You’ll have to collect the new event currency, snowflakes, by doing requests for other campers or by checking out the Quarry during the appropriate time.

Check out all the pretty, skating-inspired goodies below.
