How to add friends in Animal Crossing

In Animal Crossing : New Horizons, you can invite your friends to your island. There are several ways you can receive and move around your friends' islands. In this guide, we'll explain everything you need to know about friends.

Inviting your friends to your island will only take a few steps, and you'll be able to play with them and let them discover your world. Here are the different ways you can play with your friends in Animal Crossing.

Generate a Dodo Code to invite a friend

From the second day on your island, you'll unlock the Dodo Airline building. Talk to Orville and ask him to "I want visitors". You'll have the choice of playing locally or online. In both cases, you'll be able to invite friends with a Dodo Code. Dodo Codes are temporary codes that you'll need to share with other players to let them into your home.

Add online players

By choosing "online play" in the airport, you can connect to the online player to make friends. You'll need a Nintendo Switch Online subscription and an Internet connection. From then on, you'll be able to create Dodo Code to share with other players, or use your Nintendo Switch friends list.

Once you've issued the invitations, you can keep playing until he decides to come.

Add a best friend

Once someone has visited your island, you can quickly invite them back and add them to your list of best friends. Open your Nook Phone to open the application, which will give you a list of people you've rarely invited. From this list you can send invitations and become best friends.

As soon as a player accepts you as best friends, you'll be able to send them a message, making it easier for them to play together. If you have a large BFF list, you can ask Orville to send invitations to everyone on it.
