The Nintendo Direct last week revealed a ton of new information about Animal Crossing: New Horizons. That included some cute details, some major overhauls, and some surprising new features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watch it<\/a> – Watch it with my comments<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can watch it via the links above, but in this blog entry, I’m going to sum up the top five things I’m excited about. So without further ado, here’s my list:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#5. Best Friends & Tools<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To protect your island from vandals, most visitors will be unable to use certain tools (namely axes and shovels) in your town. The only exceptions will be if you have added that player as a best friend. So this way, you can still have a close friend help you out with town projects (like if you’re removing lots of trees, for example), while still keeping your island safe from people you may not know as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"You<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This is a great addition to the series, although it will only work if you’re selective about who you add as a best friend. Only give best-friend status to people you really trust! And if someone doesn’t best-friend you, just accept it and don’t beg to be added. Nobody likes to be nagged like that. Respect the town owner’s wishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#4. Dodo Codes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In a video<\/a> I made last July, I suggested that New Horizons should allow you to open your gate to specific groups (other than just best friends). You could have one group for family, one group for IRL friends, etc. Because there will be times that you don’t want everyone to come into your town. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe you’re trying to show something to a specific person (or group of people), or maybe you’re trying to complete a trade with someone. In those instances, uninvited guests can complicate things and drastically slow down the process of getting the right person into your town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While this feature didn’t exactly make it, Nintendo came up with something that achieved the same result: Dodo Codes. By using a Dodo Code, you can give a password to certain people and only they will be able to enter your town…even if they’re not on your friend list! This is a great solution and I’ll probably use it a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
