i don’t think that would stop nintendo from launching dlc, they do it with practically every game now. they can update everyone’s game so that there’s data for dlc exclusive villagers/furniture, but they could just make it that only those with the pass can obtain them (villagers can’t be invited, items can’t be dropped)
That may be, but again as I said, as long as Nintendo gives no further informations, take news with a grain of salt. We have no idea what will come next, but there will be some updates now with Bunny day and later Earth day.
