The Aries Fragments are a unique item in Animal Crossing New Horizons. This guide will show players how they can obtain them and explain what they are used for. Over the last year, Animal Crossing New Horizons has been the center of the gaming conversation. From the most hardcore gamers to the casual users, Animal Crossing New Horizons has been the bridge to connect them all. The game has gone over to become the second-highest Nintendo Switch title behind Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and continues to sell incredibly well around the world. With the year cycling back as it does, content you might have missed the first time is making a return. This guide will show players how they can collect Aries Fragments in Animal Crossing New Horizons.
The Aries Fragment is just 1 of the 12 different types of zodiac items available in the game. Since Animal Crossing New Horizons has such a heavy emphasis on time, the game has created specific items to match the zodiac times in the real world. In the case of the Aries Fragment, players are only able to obtain this item from March 21st to April 19th. When this time period is over, the next sign of the zodiac will take over the shooting stars. This item is used for crafting exclusive zodiac items only available for that sign. Here is how players can obtain the Aries Fragments.
How To Get Aries Fragments in Animal Crossing New Horizons
As mentioned, the Aries Fragments only appear from March 21st to April 19th. Alternatively, players can change the date of their game by entering the system settings and changing the date. Now, the player will need to wait until the night of a Meteor Shower. These Meteor Showers happen randomly on clear days from 7 PM to 4 AM. There's a good indicator that a Meteor Shower will happen if Celeste, the red owl, makes an appearance during the game. Although, Celeste doesn't have to be there for a Meteor Shower to happen. Now, when you notice the shower happening, look up at the stars and wish upon them. Wake up the next morning to find the Aries Fragments resting on the beach.
These fragments can be used to craft an Aries Rocking Chair from Celeste. Players will have to wait all year round if they wish to collect every special zodiac item. These are amongst the most difficult to collect due to the RNG nature surrounding them. Good luck wishing upon those stars.
