Welcome to our guide on how to trade in ‘Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ with other players! If you’re looking to exchange items, tools, or even villagers with your friends, we’ve got you covered. Let’s dive in!
Trading Items and Tools
In ‘Animal Crossing: New Horizons,’ you’ll collect a variety of items, from furniture to fish and insects. Trading with other players can help you expand your collection and obtain useful equipment and materials. Here’s how you can trade:
- Make sure you understand how to play multiplayer by reviewing the instructions provided.
- Select the island you’d like to trade with.
- Check that the item or tool you want to trade is in your inventory.
- Open your inventory, choose the item or tool, and select “Drop Item.”
- The dropped item will appear on the ground, where your friend can pick it up.
- Note that there may be restrictions on dropping off and picking up items based on your co-op settings. If you’re best friends, you should have no issues.
Remember, certain items like fish and bugs cannot be traded between players. However, you can trade almost anything that can be picked up, dropped, or planted, including furniture, clothes, materials, flowers, DIY recipes, bells, and even Nook Miles tickets!
Trading Villagers
If you’re looking to trade villagers in ‘ACNH’ with other players, here’s how you can do it:
- First, you’ll need to create a vacant spot on your island by having a villager move out.
- Encourage one of your current villagers to leave by time traveling or waiting for them to express their desire to move (indicated by a thought bubble above their head).
- Once the villager has decided to move, they will be packed up and ready to go in a day or two.
- Visit another player’s island where a villager is “in boxes” (preparing to move) and convince them to come to your island.
- You can also encounter new villagers on mystery islands and invite them to your island if they express interest in island life.
If you have amiibo cards of specific villagers, you can use them to invite those villagers to your camp and subsequently move to your island.
