We all know the pain of having an adored character ask to move out. Luckily, you can deny their request and ask them to stay, but sometimes, a slip of the finger means you pick the wrong dialog choice. There\u2019s an intricate method to reverse their decision to move out that\u2019ll make your favorite villager have a change of heart, Phantom Thieves style. Reddit user \u2018Deenew\u2018 is the genius behind the method, so kudos to them. How to stop a villager from leaving in Animal Crossing If a character is set to move and you don\u2019t want them to, here is what you need to do: Make sure that you don\u2019t time travel or shut your system off until tomorrow \u2013 it needs to be the same day they ask to leave. &#8211; Create or load up a second character on your island. If you have to make one, don\u2019t worry as you can delete their house (and entire existence, in fact) afterward so there\u2019s no permanent damage done. &#8211; Once that\u2019s done, use your second person and run around town until you see the desired villager with a speech bubble over their head. They\u2019ll ask if they should move, and you can tell them to stay this time. &#8211; You\u2019ll know the trick has worked when you return to your main character \u2013 simply walk around until you find them, and they should automatically ping for your attention. &#8211; The villager will tell you that they\u2019ve had a change of heart and are no longer moving meaning you no longer have to mourn over their departure. &#8211; That\u2019s everything you need to know about stopping villagers from moving out in Animal Crossing New Horizons!
