Confirmed villagers

[Dewy]

More than 160 are confirmed as of now. People are pretty confident all the Welcome amiibo villagers are back (except the San Rio, and the Nintendo-related ones like Wolf Link, Cece, Ganon, etc.) and we know there are new villagers to boot. We don't know how many villagers there is in total though.

The Kiki and Lala wand has been seen in game, so some people are predicting that the Sanrio villagers actually will be back. I hope they come back! The game has Amiibo compatibility so it would make sense if we can use our Sanrio cards again

I hope they come back as regular move-in villagers

I found this on Twitter, it's about using the amiibo cards and the figurines in the game.

The Sanrio villagers: Marty, Chai, Toby, Rilla, Etoile and Chelsea won't be in the game, but you might can get a poster when using their cards?

Also Viche (rip), Cece, Inkwell, W.Link, Ganon, Epona, Medli and Felyne probably won't make a comeback as well.

First off, thanks for this comprehensive list!

I'm a little late on my NH information intake, but seeing the new Direct definitely redirected (...hehe) my attention back toward AC and the forum. I'm excited some of my favorites (Hans and Roscoe!) were confirmed today, along with some villagers I know others here have been hoping for (Canberra, Savannah).

It looks like former Welcome Amiibo villagers will be included for everyone (Julia, Dobie etc.), so that's definitely something I'm happy and excited about ^^
