Happy Home Paradise Is Coming On November 5

Happy Home Paradise is a $25 DLC available for New Horizons. Don't worry, you can have it for free. All you need to do is to subscribe to the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack service. In addition to the free Happy Home Paradise DLC, subscribing to Nintendo's most recent service will grant you access to a host of N64 and Genesis titles.

Regardless if you're a subscriber or you paid for the DLC, you should find the download link for Happy Home Paradise on its eShop page. It should already go without saying, but you do need to own a copy of Animal Crossing: New Horizons to play it. If we're being honest, Happy Home Paradise is well worth the $25 premium. This way, you don't necessarily have to lose your access to the DLC once your subscription to the Expansion Pack has lapsed.
