Villagers can be brought into New Leaf by summoning [[Wisp]], who will prompt them to scan a character's amiibo to make him transform into said villager. Once summoned, the villager will set up camp in a new campground managed by a new [[Special Characters|special character]], [[Harvey]]. At that point, the player can invite the villager to live in their town.

50 villagers from {{PG}} and {{DnMe+}} who were absent in {{NL|short|nolink}} and earlier entries also return to the series with this update. On November 11th, 2016, 50 new amiibo cards were released featuring these 50 returning villagers.

Other amiibo series are compatible, and scanning them introduces exclusive characters and items. For example, ''Splatoon'' amiibo will bring [[Inkwell]], [[Cece]], or [[Viché]] into the game, as well a series of ''Splatoon''-themed [[Splatoon Theme|furniture and clothing items]]. ''The Legend of Zelda'' series amiibo also work, adding [[Medli]], [[Ganon]], [[Epona]], or [[W. Link]]. ''Monster Hunter Stories'' amiibo will add [[Felyne]] to the game. Six other new amiibo cards which add villagers from a crossover promotion with [[Sanrio]] were also released in Europe and Japan. However, the pack would not see an American release until March 26, 2021, when the Sanrio amiibo cards were exclusively released to Target in North America. This release, alongside restocks in Europe and Japan, coincided with {{NH|short}}{{'}}s [[1.9.0 Free Update]].<ref>{{Cite Twitter|author=NintendoAmerica|url=https://x.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1354074126521167873|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220819181044/https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1354074126521167873|archive-date=August 19, 2022|retrieved=January 26, 2021}}</ref><ref>{{Cite Twitter|author=NintendoEurope|url=https://x.com/NintendoEurope/status/1354074264874463236|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210406202407/https://twitter.com/NintendoEurope/status/1354074264874463236|archive-date=April 6, 2021|retrieved=January 26, 2021}}</ref><ref>{{Cite Twitter|author=Nintendo|url=https://x.com/Nintendo/status/1354074197140656132|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220125021049/https://twitter.com/Nintendo/status/1354074197140656132|archive-date=January 25, 2022|retrieved=January 26, 2021}}</ref>

====Crossover villagers====

====New villagers====
{{NLWa|short|nolink}} introduces 14 new villagers, and 2 returning villagers, all of whom are a crossover with other video game series or real-life brands and companies. The two returning villagers, [[Felyne]] and [[Filly]], make their first appearance in a mainline ''Animal Crossing'' game after debuting in {{HHD|short}}. Filly and [[Holden]], a new crossover villager, could only appear as visitors to the [[campground]] for Japanese towns and cannot move into the [[player]]'s [[town]] under any circumstances. All of the other crossover villagers can only be obtained by scanning their amiibo.

===Town Initiatives===
[[Town initiative]]s are daily objectives that can be completed to receive MEOW Coupons, which is the currency used in the campground. A [[CAT Machine]] has been added outside of [[town hall]] and allows the player to receive MEOW Coupons after completing initiatives. The initiatives range from simple tasks such as donating fish and planting trees, to more involved objectives such as spending a large amount of Bells on a single purchase. They can be viewed on the TPC screen of the menu, where the completion time will also be listed.

[[Public works projects]] that have been requested by villagers in the old town will automatically be available to construct in the new town.
