Welcome your island's newest resident in Animal Crossing: New Horizons! Learn how to find their new home, pop in to say hello, and see who else is moving in.

So, you've helped Tom Nook get those new island homes built and furnished. Awesome! The very next day, you'll get an island-wide broadcast announcing that a new villager is moving in. It's always exciting to see who it'll be!

Your job now is to head over to the plots you laid out yesterday. Look for the one that's actually got a house on it – that's your new neighbor's place! If you built your houses across the river, get ready to take a stroll over your brand new log bridge to get there.

Remember, every villager has their own unique house, and they all look super different from each other. Your new friend will be spending their first day on the island busy unpacking in their new home, but don't let that stop you from popping in to say hi! They'll totally appreciate the warm welcome.

Go on, go say hi to your new friend!

Sold Plots!

While you're checking out the new house, you'll also notice that the other plots you put down are now reserved for other villagers. If you interact with the sign in front of these plots, you can actually see who's planning to move in next. It's a fun way to see who your island community will grow to include soon!

You'll have more friends joining your island before you know it!
