Dear Reader:
Parent hosts surprise birthday party for their daughter in Animal Crossing: New Horizons when a real event was called off due to coronavirus
It seems that Animal Crossing: New Horizons is quickly becoming the place to hold virtual gathers to replace real-life events that have been postponed. First we had a surprise wedding in New Horizons, and now we have a birthday party!
And here is when she realised what was happening 😍😍 pic.twitter.com/C0Ip4vaVN0

Alexia Christofi knew her daughter was bummed about not being able to have a birthday party due to coronavirus concerns, so she came up with a new plan. She reached out to her daughter's friends and got them to put together a surprise party in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. In the video above, you can see the moment Alexia's daughter Sophia finds out what's going on.
We can all agree that a real-life birthday party with friends would be better, but a virtual gathering means just as much in times like these.
