ACNH Zelda 3.0 Update Highlights

The collaboration between Animal Crossing and Zelda brings numerous exciting features to your island. Here's what makes this ACNH Zelda crossover special and why players around the world are excited about the new content available in the 3.0 update.

How the Legend of Zelda Collaboration Works in ACNH

Understanding how to access the ACNH Zelda content is essential for any player looking to bring Hyrule to their island. Unlike some previous Animal Crossing collaborations, the Zelda items require amiibo scanning to unlock. Here's a quick overview of how the system works in the 3.0 update.

Unlocking Zelda Items in Animal Crossing

To access the Legend of Zelda items in ACNH, you'll need to scan a compatible Zelda series amiibo at the Nook Stop terminal in Resident Services. The good news is that scanning just one amiibo unlocks all 28 items immediately in your Nook Shopping catalog. You don't need multiple amiibo to access different items—any single Zelda amiibo grants full access to the entire ACNH Zelda collection.

Daily Purchase Limit for Zelda Items

While all items become available after scanning an amiibo, you can only purchase five items per day through Nook Shopping. This means collecting the complete set of 28 ACNH Zelda items takes at least six days. Plan your purchases wisely and prioritize the items you want most for your island design.

Getting Zelda Villagers on Your Island

The two Zelda villagers—Tulin and Mineru—can be invited to your island by scanning specific amiibo. Different amiibo unlock different villagers, so check our detailed amiibo guide to learn which figures invite which character to your ACNH island.
