NEW RENDERS

[Licorice]

Yeah Lobo looks a lot different. Idk how I feel about his new color.

 

[moo-kun]

I just saw him.
Yeah, he is totally purple.

He had a kind of purple hue to him before, but that's just really, really purple.



Edit.

Spoiler: Lobo New Leaf

Spoiler: Lobo New Horizons

Quite a difference.

Woah... Why did they edit Lobo?! AC Team, please tell me this was a colour change proposal and not the intended finished version of Lobo! ヽ(१﹏१；)))

There's already a purple wolf and his name is Tarou!!!

I just woke up this morning greeted with LOTS of new renders gave me a little bit of heart attack

I changed my Avatar because Bunnie is babe

Also, am i the only one who's indecisive whether Sheep now wearing shirt is good or not

I hope it's not final.
His face looks generic now.

Dear Nintendo..

Please stop redesigning villagers in the dark!

I actually have Lobo in my NL town atm and just think he's such a unique looking guy. I don't see why they felt they had to change him... I'm hoping they change him back!
He's not just any wolf, he's LOBO (유Д유〣)
Please rethink this Nintendo!!! (๑˃͈W˂͈๑)

Bianca is So CUTE!!!!!! I love her lil button up shirt :') precious

Also merengue!!!! Her chef outfit is adorable bless

Was hoping to see the cats or the bear cubs tbh but I'm still very happy

i am so in love. these renders are actually making some of my least favorite villagers look more appealing. it really helps when the screen resolution isn't below 480p i suppose.

and the clothes! all the new clothing items are getting me so hyped. it looks like nintendo didn't skimp out at all and is giving us a lot of new material to work with in new horizons. i cannot wait for release day!

 

[returnofsaturn]

I actually really love what they've done to Lobo. These small changes just feel like improvements with age. I like the subtle green/purple thing hes got going on and I think it suits him. I love all the small details they've changed and added (,,:: They've really beautified these guys.

 

[Golden_Purrl]

The lack of cats was very disappointing. I was really looking to seeing Purrl?s New Horizons render and possible new outfit.
Hopefully the rest of the character renders are coming real soon.
Glad to see Skye, Wolfgang, Mint, and Chadder, they look so great!

Not sure why someone at Nintendo chose purple for Lobo, it?s going to take me a while to get used to his new design.
Also the sheep in dress/shirts too,I?m so used to the scarves, it made them unique. Frita?s dress is brilliant though.

I love the new version of the chefs outfit that Merengue/Bettina are wearing I like it better than the older chefs outfit.
I hope Purrl?s new outfit is too different from her usual Periwinkle Tee, a Periwinkle dress would be lovey.

I prefer scarves. Sheep have natural built-in sweaters!

Also, Bunnie is indeed <3

 

[Boccages]

I'm glad they've shown O'Hare, Claude, Roald, Friga. Now I want to see Olive, Pate, Canberra, Ozzie, Broffina, and Betty...

 

[Bluebellie]

I hope we can remove the shirts from the sheep. We probably won’t but I’m here hoping.

 

[Sweetley]

These renders are just beautiful, love the details of each villager and NPC here. I fell in love with the way Tiffany looks, whatever outfit she wears, I want it. Otherwise, I need to get used to it that the sheeps now wearing shirts instead of their scarfs, especially Pietro looks a bit strange (not sure if a different outfit may would fit better to him?) but still cute. Hope they gonna drop the renders of the missing villagers soon, I want to see how the cats and hamsters looking.

Also, I'm kinda confused about Lobo, is his fur really purple now? Because for me, it still looks like a dark blue, maybe a little bit brighter than before compared to the renders from the previous games. Still like him a lot however, whatever he's blue or purple now, lol.

 

[VillageDuck]

The detailing is superb - exactly the sort of upgrade a modern console AC should have. They've kept the charming simply aesthetic intact despite the added clarity.

Also, are we sure that purple wolf is Lobo? I'm not sure how I feel about my cranky bro's new look... Lobo and Roscoe are the only two villagers I properly got attached (cranky4life) to in my short time playing New Leaf, so it'll feel odd if either of them change much.

edit - Gormless Goth Queen Muffy also looking great - I've been playing Happy Home Designer this past week and she was my third client. Not sure I'd want her living in my town, but I'm glad she's still around and hopefully she'll visit.

 

[Imbri]

I like the new renders. Yes, there are changes, but that's been the case in almost every new game, at least in terms of detail/clarity. Look how the player has evolved over the years. Everyone hails that as great. It stands to reason that the villagers would want a bit of an updated look after almost 20 years (for some animals).

Looking forward to seeing the rest of the villagers. I'm curious to see if they change Midge up much. She's probably the one villager I definitely would want on my island. For the rest, I'll see who washes ashore.

 

[Sweetley]

I decided to check out Lobo again and okay, guess he's really a little bit more purple now, but still more blue (I think). In general, compared to his New Leaf render, his look did changed in New Horizons, although it's not a huge change overall (in my opinion), it's just more smoother and detailed now.

(Sorry for the trashy edit)

I'm sure it'll stop looking weird with time. Him wearing something that isn't black and white is a shock, though! Didn't he and Roscoe always wear black and white items? Maybe he's going all David Bowie on us and reinventing himself.

 

[Libra]

The sheep will take some time getting used to, to be honest. But I like all the other villagers and I'm very much looking forward to seeing more of them.

 

[carackobama]

I?m sad at the lack of Tangy but I?m so happy with most of the new outfits! I love the addition of details like collars on the clothes, it?s such a simple change but so impactful and an improvement!

 

[Shellzilla_515]

Yoooo my favourite squirrel Agent S is there! I had a gut feeling they'd reveal her and I'm glad I was right!
