The best New Horizons 2.0 villagers released early on Pocket Camp

Animal Crossing New Horizons’ 2.0 update will introduce 16 new villagers to the game. This morning, Nintendo revealed some of these new villagers’ personality types, noting they’ve come to the mobile game Animal Crossing Pocket Camp, before they’re arriving to New HorizonsThis is. With those announcements came a few surprises on villager personalities — Shino is peppy type, for one — and a whole lot of excitement over which of these villagers make for the best new neighbors.

I’m absolutely chuffed, since recruiting villagers has always been my favorite part. While I enjoy seeing beautiful designs, it is also something that makes me happy. New Horizons players come up with, I’m no designer myself. My island is named “Island” and my flag is a white square with a single green dot in the center (it’s art, look it up). But recruiting my ideal villagers? I’m interested. Sure, it’s taken a lot of Nook Miles-related blood, sweat, and tears (and maybe some amiibo), but it was work I was willing to put in to get some of my favorite villagers like Marina, Roald (I’m basic), and Fauna.

So here’s a power ranking of these shiny New Horizons2.0 Villagers that were publicly announced Pocket Camp

Shino

Shino is a beautiful deer that stole Nintendo Direct’s show. We all love Shino. Shino’s beautiful kimono and devilishly horns have already captured the hearts of many. New Horizons Inspired players TonFan art. According to the Shino image from the Pocket Camp tweet, she may look “quiet” and “mysterious,” but she’s actually a peppy type who tries to “befriend everyone she meets”! I’m already thinking she’d be the perfect neighbor for Fauna, my other adorable deer villager — and I know others are hoping she’ll settle on their island too.

Her birthday falls on Halloween, which is a bonus! It doesn’t get cooler than that.

Sasha

Sasha’s look was a bit of a red herring, with that varsity jacket that convinced fans he might be a jock type. This soft-spoken boy, however, is not lazy! He is a huge fan of taking selfies. “He makes the exact same face in the photo, but that doesn’t stop him from taking about a hundred a day,” reads the Sasha image from the Pocket Camp tweet. He has a look like this, and who can blame him? You can see his cute little face with the fluffy bangs and white-tipped ears. Sasha is easily the most adorable rabbit type in a sea.

What I’m trying to say is that if I don’t recruit Sasha, there will be hell to pay. I mean, I even have two extremely lazy pet rabbits in real life — it’s truly game over for me.

Cephalobot

Some of us weren’t feeling this robotic octopus, and yeah, there’s not a lot going on behind those eyes. What about the smug one? However, I do want him. I need to add him to Octopus Row, aka the part of my neighborhood where all of my octopi live, and the pièce de résistance of Island.

All three octopi I recruited: Marina, Zucker and Octavian. I managed to do this all without buying any amiibo or using hacky tricks. Marina appeared on the last island-hopping ticket I purchased, and I was overcome with happiness (and relief). You bet I’m adding Cephalobot to Octopus Row, and I will do it without hesitation.

Ione

With that starry shirt and celestial color palette, Ione looks like she’d fit right in with some of Celeste’s starry night furniture items. A few fans pointed out that she looked like she might be a snooty or peppy type — maybe someone to rival Marshal or Peanut — but Ione is a normal type! Though she looks quiet, she’ll apparently “talk your ear off if you ask her about constellations,” according to the Ione image from the Pocket Camp tweet. It’s a simple task for anyone who enjoys stargazing or has a pastel-themed Island, or wants to add a new squirrel to their ranks.

Petri

This adorable little research mouse is quite the heartbreaker. Her huge and 3D glasses-themed, red-and blue-colored ears are amazing! That LAB COAT is amazing! The snooty type lives and dies by context — at worst snooty villagers can be extremely grating, and an automatic ditch, for me. However, what about the woodland animal or small villager? Perfection. Also, Petri has clearly earned her snootiness, since she will “stay in her laboratory for days at a time,” according to the Petri image from the Pocket Camp tweet.

Marlo

This surly little man — and he is a cranky type — seems like The Godfather hamster. Marlo looks like he can survive in Tim Burton films or as an Addams Family pet. But he fails to get the vibe. He wears no sleeves in his tuxedo. This makes it a type of vest. But that doesn’t have to be a bad thing. It just means that he appeals to a certain sensibility, seeing as he’s rumored to run “some sort of underground organization,” according to the Marlo image from the Pocket Camp tweet.

Use this information however you wish.

Tiansheng

This is not a favorite of many, possibly due to one peculiar characteristic. Is this a jock monkey who never removes his shoes? The Tiansheng image from the Pocket Camp tweet notes he “insists that his shoes help him run faster,” which, honestly, maybe? It’s not like we see other villagers with shoes on, nor can players gift their other villagers shoes and expect them to be worn. And while he’s got that functional fashion on the bottom, he wears what appears to be a gold circlet where you might expect a sweatband. He is an inconsistent king. This is in line with the other. New Horizons Jockeys have a focus on getting swole and are therefore written.

Quinn

This purple-colored eagle is very fashionable New Horizons’ newest sisterly type. She hasn’t really made waves — at least not yet. It’s not that Quinn has anything going against her, she just doesn’t quite have anything special going Please see the following: her either. And while being hated isn’t really desirable, it can still make other villagers popular choices for players who like to buck the norm.

Where others were surprised by certain villager type designations, most of us can agree that Quinn’s fits her well. Her “supercool style” and desire to maintain her “reputation,” as per the Quinn image from the Pocket Camp tweet, all scream sisterly type — the kind of villager that has the dorky aspirational qualities of an older sibling. Shino is a well-known name. ActuallyThe more fashionable villager. But that doesn’t stop Quinn from trying.
