Animal Crossing New Horizons Guide Wiki
Animal Crossing: New Horizons has arrived on the Nintendo Switch and players can finally go about living their alternate lives with a bunch of anthropomorphic animals. There’s no real goal in New Horizons. You’re just there to kick back and enjoy island living however you see fit.
Want to spend the entire day fishing and donate all your new catches to the museum? You can. More about creepy crawlies and want to catch bugs instead? Be Tom Nook’s guest. Or maybe you just want to own the biggest house on the island and be some kind of philanthropist to the other villagers.
Whatever your goal is in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, our guide wiki is here to help you realize your ambitions. It’ll talk you through everything from general information on the game and the basics to getting started, right through to how to get every tool, and some tips and tricks on developing your island further, too.
So, without further ado, let’s dive right in to all that sweet, Animal Crossing knowledge.
