If you're hoping for an in-game reset button, sorry, it's a no-go. The only way to start fresh is to delete the save file directly from the Switch's system settings. It's a bit of a hassle but totally worth it if you're looking for that clean slate experience.
Just delete the save data lol. System settings > Data management and you'll find it.
Be careful, though! Once you delete your Animal Crossing: New Horizons save data, there鈥檚 no turning back. All your progress, your meticulously placed furniture, those rare bugs and fish collections... *poof* gone. Make sure you really want to say goodbye to your current island life before taking the plunge!
