Want to have the right neighbors from the start or change the design of your whole island fast on Animal Crossing New Horizons? Do you prefer pears to oranges? Doesn't the configuration of your island suit you? Here's a guide to rerolling the start of your island on Nintendo Switch.

How To Restart (Reroll) Your Animal Crossing Island?

If you're a big fan of the license, you've probably already thought about the setup you would have liked for your island on Animal Crossing New Horizons. In the same way, there are surely animals/neighbors that you prefer to others or a fruit that you would like to see in abundance on your island. Don't panic, it is possible to start the game again until you get satisfaction. That said, the process is quite long because you will have to:

• Redo the start of the game (choice of nickname and appearance of your avatar)

• Choose an island configuration among the 4 proposals (you can reset the game directly if you don't like any)

• Land on the island to see which two villagers will accompany you

How To Reset Your Island In ACNH?

As long as you do not go further than landing on the island, you can quit the game directly - it won't save! So you just have to quit and relaunch the game (no need to turn off the console).

Please note that the automatic saving is triggered shortly after your arrival on the island.

To sum up, here are the three things you can change by resetting:

• The starting fruit of your island

• The configuration of the island

• The two villagers

• The color of your airport
