Just about a week ago, Nintendo announced a massive 3.0 update coming to Animal Crossing: New Horizons, complete with new items, buildings, and a whole heap of amiibo rewards — including four new amiibo villagers that can visit your town: Mineru and Tulin from The Legend of Zelda series, and the return of the cosplaying squirrels Cece and Viché.
Now, we have more details on how to summon these new villagers to your island. Unlike Animal Crossing: New Leaf, which required scanning a specific amiibo, this time around players have a lot more flexibility on which amiibo they can scan. Sadly, this also likely confirms that previous villagers like Wolf Link, Medli, and Ganon won’t be making a return in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, as their amiibo now unlock different characters. Here’s how it works:
