Playing multiplayer on Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a breeze! If you're on the same island, up to 8 players can join the fun through local wireless or online play. Just open your NookPhone, select 'Call Islander', and choose who you want to play with. For online or long-distance play, head over to the airport and talk to Orville; he'll set you up to either visit a friend's island or to host visitors yourself! Make sure everyone has a Nintendo Online subscription to play over the internet.

Quick tip: Got friends not on your island? Simple! Fly to their island via the airport, or invite them over to yours. Dodo Airlines is your go-to for all things multiplayer. Enjoy!

As someone who hosts ACNH game nights often, I can't emphasize enough how smooth it is to set up multiplayer sessions. The airport's your best friend for visiting islands. Plus, don't forget about the Best Friends app on your NookPhone to manage who can do what on your island!

Honestly, the fuss over multiplayer setup is overrated. Just hit up Orville at the airport for online play, or use local play for in-person friends. Remember, everyone needs their own copy of the game!
