**A new feature has been added for backing up save data to Nintendo's servers via the internet. You can use backed up save data with the island backup restoration service if your Nintendo Switch system is lost or broken.
***You must be a member of Nintendo Switch Online and enable backups within Animal Crossing: New Horizons to use this new feature.
***Save data cannot be restored at a customer's discretionary timing. If your system is broken, you must contact Nintendo Support to start a repair request. If you have lost your system, you must contact Nintendo Support.
***This feature does not allow save data (island data) to be transferred to a different system. We currently plan on adding a save data transfer feature within 2020. Information on the feature and timing will be announced at a future time.
*Fixed issues
**Other adjustments were made to improve the game play experience.

:''Official changelog:''
*General updates
**Fixed an issue where an animal you've invited to move from another island doesn't actually move, leaving the plot of land allocated for them to move to sold and unoccupied.
***How this issue will be resolved in affected save data:<br>After the software is updated to Ver. 1.1.2, the sold plot of land will revert to being available, and a new animal will become able to move there again.
***Note: Unfortunately, the animal that was originally invited to move to your island when the issue occurred will not return to their original island, nor will their plan to move to your island be carried out.
**Fixed an issue where a request from [[Tom Nook]] for the Resident Representative to find a plot of land for new residents disappears.
***How this issue will be resolved in affected save data:<br>After the software is updated to Ver. 1.1.2, if the island is developed to a certain point (Nook's Cranny is either under construction or completed), the next time the Resident Representative plays the game, a special event will trigger during the island-wide broadcast and the story will move forward.
**Fixed an issue where, after deleting a resident, it becomes impossible to move their house and/or other structures.
***How this issue will be resolved in affected save data:<br>After the software is updated to Ver. 1.1.2, it will once more become possible to request that these structures be moved.
**Fixed an issue where both [[Nook Miles]] and [[Bell]]s are subtracted when you use [[Nook Miles Ticket]] to go on a [[Mystery Islands|Mystery Tour]] and purchase an item from [[Wilbur]].
**Other issues are now resolved.
