Thanks to additional information on the Japanese Nintendo website though, we have some details on the exact release time! According to the official Nintendo website in Japanese, the Version 1.3.0 update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons containing all these exciting new features will be released at exactly 10AM Japan Standard Time on Friday, July 3rd.
OCEAN EXPLORATION & PIRATE GULLIVER
First, we'll see diving return, which has the player dive into the ocean and catch sea creatures. You'll need to purchase a Wetsuit before you can dive, though they'll become available at Nook's Cranny for 3,000 Bells. They may even come across a Scallop and summon everyone's favorite otter, Pascal, who'll give you an exclusive DIY recipe, such as something from the Mermaid series. The creatures you catch can also be donated to The Museum. Additionally, Gulliver appears in a new pirate outfit. He has a task for the player that allows for a cool reward. (The reward will be sent in the mail.)
Although the names of items haven't been announced yet, promotional materials so far have revealed quite a lot of Mermaid set furniture. We were able to spot ~11 items, including Mermaid Bed, Mermaid Dresser, Mermaid Chair, Mermaid Table, Mermaid Ornament, Mermaid Shelf, Mermaid Wallpaper, Mermaid Flooring, Mermaid Lamp, Mermaid Partition & Mermaid Vanity Table.
