Types of gifts

Animal Crossing: New Horizons offers a variety of gifts that allow players to personalize their interactions and contribute to the community gaming experience. In this article, we'll explore the different types of gifts available in the game.

How to receive gifts:

• Mailbox: It often happens that the locals send you gifts by mail, or that your fictitious mother sends you a parcel.
• By giving an object to someone: If you give an object, fruit or even clothes to a local, he or she will give you something in return.
• When someone visits your home: If someone visits your home and brings you something or offers to play a game, you'll win a gift as a reward.
• When a local approaches you to talk: most of the time, it's to offer you something.
• Balloons: Listen carefully and use your slingshot to catch the gift balloons. Read our guide for more info!
