Villager Popularity Guide for Animal Crossing New Horizons

[FaerieRose]

Hmm... My top 10 has four Tier 1 villagers, three Tier 2 villagers, and three Tier 3 villagers. It seems I'm hopelessly mundane.

Gonna bump this thread so more people can see it, hope it gets stickied!

 

[Maiana]

Bumping this because it's extremely important !

Thanks to much to everyone for putting this list together.

I don't know why I like tiers and rankings so much because it's not like it impacts how I feel about a certain villager, but I've always been obsessed with lists and rankings so that's probably why.

According to the current tiers, I have

Tier 1:
- Judy
- Beau

Tier 2:
- Rosie
- Skye

Tier 3:
- Tia

Tier 4:
- Hazel

Tier 5:
- Huck

Tier 6:
- Pancetti
- Kevin


I'm surprised Hazel isn't Tier 6... I always had the impression she was one of the most hated villagers.

I see Marhasl is yet to be dethroned XD I was expecting some of the new villagers to score higher than him.
I thought my buddy Sprinkle would be lower since i dont seem to see anyone talking about her!
Thank you for making this!

I never go by lists.

I like who I like, and it never really changes.

I'm not overly fond of the popular ones.

Gotta disagree with sprinkle I think she should be higher, she's been sold on here quite a few times and she's gone for quite a lot of bells

I am looking forward to seeing how the villagers will fluctuate throughout the years.

Raymond should be #1. Ankha should be tier 1.

Seen people wanting to buy them for 100 nook mile tickets EACH on gamefaqs, lol.

 

[Misha]

This is Klaus and Eugene slander.

But tbf most of my favourites are tier 2, 3 and 4, and I don't think I can handle playing animal crossing without Stitches in my town so that's going to be an ordeal.

Have to remember that lists like these are just for general reference. Everyone has their own preferences. See I would personally pay someone millions of bells/tbt or nook miles ticket for Purrl (who according to this list is a tier 4). But I'm probably one of the few people that would actually be willing to do that.

 

[Boccages]

Mine are pretty much all tier 4-5 : Pate, Olive, O'Hare, Claude, Norma, Canberra, Ozzie, Gabi, Friga, Norma, Roald, Broffina, Lyman...

I’m going to say this now. Sprocket(tier 5) might be the single most overlooked villager ever. He’s not in a lot of iterations of the game and the ones that he is in, the graphics don’t do him justice. Anyway, he got an overhaul in NH and looks fantastic. I disrupted my ten and amiibo plans to put him in the lineup after I found him randomly on a mystery island.

I noticed Paula is on the list (Tier 6) But the Animal Crossing Wiki says she's not in New Horizons?

I think she should be because she has an existing amiibo card

Not all villagers with an existing amiibo card are in the game, or on the list. Spork, for example (one of my favorite villagers) isn't in the game or on the list. The animals with an existing amiibo card are in Happy Home Designer and/or New Leaf.

You are probably using the wrong wiki. Try Nookipedia instead. Hint, hint : she's in !

EDIT : and so is Spork. Please dump whatever Wiki you are using, it's feeding you false information.

Spork is in the game!? I have to re-submit my villager favourites list.
The wiki I was using was not updated, thanks for an updated wiki link.

I was more so responding to the OP and the comment, I didn't mean to say sprinkle should necessarily be higher on the list I meant in response to his comment
