Trying to figure out if your favorite villagers from older Animal Crossing games are making an appearance on Animal Crossing: New Horizons? Well, we’ve actually mocked up a list here of all the returning favorites, though there aren’t as many as we’d like. If you’re curious in particular about whether Celeste is in Animal Crossing New Horizons, then we can help!

Is Celeste in Animal Crossing New Horizons

So, you might be a series veteran who’s returning with Animal Crossing: New Horizons and you’ve got one absolute fave. Unlike everyone clamoring about Isabelle, you fancy yourself a person of culture. Sure, she’s lovable enough, but you have your heart set on someone who’s a little more avian in nature. She loves antiques, history, and is a real family owl. Yes, we’re talking about Celeste. Blathers has a sister, and we reckon she’s pretty damn cool even if chatting to her used to just be a much-needed break from Blathers, well, blathering on. 

For those wondering whether or not she would make a comeback, we understand why you’re worried. Plenty of faves aren’t returning (and we’re particularly worried about what Daisy Mae means when it comes to Joan’s uh, continued living), but we can happily confirm that Celeste is in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Yes, it’s time for applause. You actually get to encounter her fairly early on in your process to change your town up. She will appear in your island at some point after the sun has set, and she’ll just be hanging around. If you speak to her, she will talk a little bit about falling stars, and generally be incredibly adorable as well as give you a DIY recipe for a magic wand. This item can help you store and change between outfits on a whim, so it’s honestly quite cool! Celeste is more than just a pretty face!

Now that we’ve got some news about whether you can anticipate seeing Celeste in Animal Crossing New Horizons, we hope that everyone is extra incentivized to work on her brother’s museum exhibits even though Blathers is probably the most long-winded owl explainer in the history of owl explainers. So, do you need a hand with anything else in Animal Crossing: New Horizons?
