That's okay! Here's what to think about first and foremost. But you still aren't sure what to do with your first island pick. Okay, so - you understand the above disclaimers. Things to consider when choosing an island shape We recommend you pick a layout you like and not worry too much about min/maxing your island choice. Don't worry about things like the location of rocks, as every few days rocks will shatter under your shovel or axe, at which point a new one will spawn in a new location the next day.Įvery island type has everything you need at every stage of the game. This is a new sort of 'gated' progression to the earliest stages of Animal Crossing New Horizons, but each island layout has access to the same basic things at each stage, meaning - we reiterate - that there is no 'best' island style. Then, later, you'll unlock the means to create a ladder to clamber the inclines. Pretty quickly you'll craft a means to cross over the rivers to unlock another chunk of the island which will give you access to more of the same. This means you'll have everything you need to gather resources to do some crafting.
So that means initially you'll have access to a chunk of the island that features the town square and resident services tent, the airport, a good amount of beach, a bunch of trees and some rocks. This isn't a cop-out let us explain.Īs we say above, every island layout has the same basic setup. In fact, pretty much every island is equal. Okay, so, here comes the kicker, the thing that in your heart of hearts you probably know is coming: in Animal Crossing New Horizons there is no 'best' island layout that you absolutely must choose. That doesn't mean it's necessarily the best one for you, however. For what it's worth, we picked the island layout in the very bottom right of the image above. Rivers will follow different routes and raised areas of land will be in different places, however. Resident Services and the area that will eventually develop into your town square is marked on the map with the Animal Crossing leaf symbol, and the airport will be on the grey, rocky area directly below it, or near enough to it. What differs is placement - these buildings and resources will appear in different places. It's important to note that all islands will have the same basic resources - trees, stones, natural flowers and basic starter buildings like Resident Services and the Airport are always present. Here are all the possible island types we know of, as disseminated by the Animal Crossing community pre-launch.Īs you can see, the island layouts vary in a number of ways. The islands you're given to choose between are based on the questions you answer previously and seemingly a random element, but you can 'reroll' your island choice by restarting the process if you wish. You'll be presented with four different choices of island by the Nook travel agency, though there are actually more options than the four you'll see, as you can see in the screenshot below.
