I installed the earth day update but Leif is not here, its 6:35 am in my game.
 
He would show up at 8am cuz thats when a new day starts i think
 
No, I was awake early this morning and Leif was in my plaza just after 5am.

You haven't been time traveling have you?
 
He's not in mine either and I don't time travel. But I do have the Earth Day update. My Nook's Cranny upgraded today, could that be why? Bit concerning!
 
Did you open the game at all before installing the update?

Yes, the update didn't trigger when I turned on my switch so when I turned the game on I went to go send a friend a random gift, and that triggered the update. I thought it would be okay as I got intros from Isabelle before and after the update.

That's probably why, and I don't think there's any way to get him now.
When you loaded up the game, it chose what visitor was gonna be there that day. Flick, Label, etc or none. Leif was not included in this since you didn't have the update.

I was really looking forward to this, that's disappointing.
Thank you
 
He should show up on your first new day after updating!
 
So tomorrow he should hopefully be there? I really hope so.
Hopefully. For those who updated before opening the game, we all seem to have been guaranteed Leif as our visitor, so you will hopefully get him tomorrow.
Redd should also show up tomorrow for the first time for most of us - I wonder if you can have both at the same time!
 
He didn’t show up. I finished updating around 9am in my time so I guess he may show the next day.

Thank you for your help, I'll update this thread tomorrow with hopefully good news!
 
I'm also not having him on my plaza after the update but I had the KK slider concert this morning as well so maybe this can't overlap and that's why I'll have him tomorrow I guess?

Yeah, some visitors are guaranteed (KK on Saturday, Daisy Mae on Sunday) so on days like that you won't ever be able to get another visitor that overlaps with their slot (you could still get a night visitor)

K.K. for sure takes up the whole plaza, so Leif has to wait a day. He should be there the next day in theory, with Redd!
