All Animal Crossing: New Horizons Zelda items

We've been waiting for the Animal Crossing: New Horizons Zelda items for a while now, and they're finally here, so let's get turning our islands into a Hyrulean vacation destination. Along with the Animal Crossing Zelda items, there are two new villagers you can add for even more immersion - here's how to do it.

If you need a refresher on all the other hundreds of Animal Crossing villagers, we can help you out. We've also got a very handy ACNH art guide to all the pieces you need for the museum, and how to discern their originality.

How do I get Animal Crossing: New Horizons Zelda items?

The only way to get Animal Crossing's Zelda items is to order them via Nook Shopping - but you must first unlock them using any Zelda-themed amiibo card or figure. While only certain figures unlock Mineru and Tulin, every single one unlocks all of the furniture and clothing options. Simply scan it in using the Nook Stop terminal in the town hall to invite a camper, and then you can order to your heart's content.

Once the catalog is expanded, follow these steps:

• Open the Nook Shopping app
• Choose the Special Goods menu
• Switch to the Promotion tab
• Scroll down past the Lego and Mario items, and there you are - Zelda stuff!

Here are all the furniture and outdoor items you can get from the range:

Here are all the clothing items and accessories (including a wand) that you can order:

How do I get Tulin and Mineru in ACNH?

To get Tulin and/or Mineru as villagers in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, you need to unlock them with a Zelda-themed amiibo figure. Not every figure unlocks each character - for instance, I used my Prince Sidon amiibo to unlock Mineru, and my Link Archer amiibo to unlock Tulin, but my Wolf Link and Guardian figures also only unlock Mineru.

Here are all the Zelda amiibo and which character they unlock:

Scanning in your amiibo is easy - same as above, simply head to the town hall, use the Nook Stop terminal, and choose 'Invite a camper'. This prompts you to prepare the amiibo, then hold it to the right-hand Joy-Con. This will register which amiibo it is, and confirm that you want to invite the specific villager. Then, they'll appear at the campsite, so go and make your introductions.

To get them to actually move in takes three days - you'll need to complete a crafting request for them on each of the three days, after which they'll ask to move in. You may need to pick a villager to move out if you haven't got a spare plot, so pick wisely.
