The Animal Crossing New Horizons version 2.0 update is here, and one of the new additions to the game involves closer interactions with villagers. Specifically, villagers can invite you to visit their homes, and they may also surprise you at your own home. You may be wondering how to trigger these reactions so you can start spending quality time hanging out with your favorite animal residents. Here’s how to get invited to villagers’ homes and have them visit yours in Animal Crossing New Horizons.
How To Get Invited to Villagers’ Homes & Have Them Visit Yours
If you’re just starting off or have a new villager you want to hang out with, you’ll need to know that your friendship needs to be at a certain point before you can think about being invited to their home. You can raise friendship with villagers by talking to them every day, giving them gifts, and celebrating their birthday.
When you have high friendship with a villager, they may invite you over to their home after you talk to them. They may ask you if you are busy at the moment and then offer an invitation to come over to their house. If you accept the offer, you’ll be able to go inside their home with them and hang out.
Additionally, villagers may make surprise visits to your home. For this to happen, you need to have high friendship with them and be inside your house for the event to occur. Make sure you aren’t in decorating mode. When in your house, you may see a dialogue box from one of your villagers announcing they are coming inside.
When hanging out with your villager in their house or your own, they may present you with a gift or ask to play a card game with you. They also may say they don’t want to waste your time and offer to leave, in which you can ask them to stay or go. Eventually, they will leave your home (or kick you out in their own house).
Hanging out in a house is a fun way to interact and raise friendship even higher if you are working towards getting a photograph from your favorite villager. That’s everything you need to know about how to get invited to villagers’ homes and have them visit yours in Animal Crossing New Horizons.
