When players roll out their tent in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, one of the very first things to do is start gathering DIY recipes and shaking trees for hidden items. In no time that tent is traded out for a house with ample space via upgrades to store all the amazing things being built or found as players scout their beaches or travel to far away islands. Furniture has many uses, from setting up the perfect bedroom to preparing a space for a new villager to call home. Some furniture in Animal Crossing: New Horizons is harder to come by than others, and some items are much more popular. What is the current favorite furniture piece for players this fall?
The current favorite furniture item for Animal Crossing is the Rocket from the Lunar collection. DIY items are harder to come by, as they must be found at random, or the DIY blueprint has to be given by a friend who obtains a spare. New Horizons’ blueprints can also be found on islands, using Animal Crossing’s Nook Miles program to take to the skies. Because of this, items that are only able to be found and built have more value for fans. They aren’t part of the random rotation of things that can be bought at Nook’s Cranny, making the achievement value much larger. It is also rather impressive for any fan to have a rocket to the moon sitting on the lawn.
The Rocket, ranked as Animal Crossing’s number one by Blue Planet Aquarium, can be obtained when the player receives the DIY card from Celeste on nights that stars fall on the players island. She will also appear randomly as long as the weather is clear. Celeste offers a wide range of items based on constellations or space, and they are all fantastic for players looking to decorate with a starry night aesthetic. Once Animal Crossing’s Rocket DIY card is obtained, the player must collect 10 star fragments and 20 iron nuggets to complete the crafting requirements. Once built, it can be set up and admired, or sold for a total of 20,000 Bells.
Animal Crossing: New Horizon’s Rocket Is Out Of This World
The reason that items are popular varies greatly for fans of the game. For some items, like Animal Crossing players’ favorite clothing, it’s more about the financial value for the player. For other items, it’s simply about how cool it looks in a room or as a piece of town décor. In the case of the Rocket in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the primary draw is the difficulty of getting the DIY, completing the crafting, and then showing it off for anyone visiting the to see. The majestic piece of furniture is an eye-catcher for players to enjoy in their home, or while visiting a friend. It also makes a lovely gift.
While popular items are always changing with the addition of new content and events, the Rocket from the lunar collection will likely remain a favorite for players who enjoy a challenging item that can be crafted instead of bought. The Rocket is just one of many furniture pieces that Animal Crossing: New Horizons offers players. With plenty more to come, fans will be able to add even more wonderful decorative items to keep their rockets company, and add to the intricate décor of any island layout.
