Animal Crossing: New Horizons has received version 2.0.0 which marks the return of Gyroids, a unique series of collectible dolls.
What are Gyroids?
Gyroids are a series of special furniture items in Animal Crossing based on Japanese Haniwa statues, which play unique sounds and dance to any music that is currently playing around them. Gyroids in Animal Crossing come in many shapes and sizes.
How To Find Gyroids
There are two main methods for finding Gyroids in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
1 – The first method is to find and plant Gyroid Fragments.
- Gyroid Fragments are most commonly found buried underground on Kapp’n’s Mystery Island Tours.
- Players can dig them up in the same way they find fossils.
Roost Cafe owner Brewster will also give the player one during their first meeting. - Gyroid Fragments can then be re-buried on the player’s home island. They must then be watered either using a watering can or by rain.
- One day after watering, the fragments can be dug up again to get a full Gyroid.
2 – The second method is similar to how Gyroids are found in past Animal Crossing games. Fully grown Gyroids can be dug up from marks in the ground one day after it has rained on the player’s island.
Amount of Gyroids
There are currently 36 different Gyroids that can be found in the game. Many of them can also be customized into different colors.
