Why Can't I Add Friends on ACNH?

Published in Gaming 2 mins read

There are a few reasons why you might be unable to add friends on Animal Crossing: New Horizons (ACNH).

1. Friend List Limit

  • ACNH has a friend list limit of 100 friends. If your list is full, you won't be able to add more friends until you remove some.

2. Friend Request Pending

  • You might have sent a friend request to someone, but they haven't accepted it yet. You'll need to wait for them to accept before you can play together.

3. Network Issues

  • Check your internet connection. If you're having network issues, you might not be able to connect with friends.

4. Privacy Settings

  • Make sure your privacy settings allow you to receive friend requests. You can adjust these settings in the "Game Settings" menu.

5. Game Version

  • Ensure you and your friends are playing the same version of the game. If you have different versions, you might not be able to connect.

6. Nintendo Switch Online Subscription

  • You need a Nintendo Switch Online subscription to play online with friends.

7. Friend Code Issues

  • Double-check that you are using the correct friend code. You can find your friend code in the "Friend List" menu.

8. Region Lock

  • ACNH is region-locked. This means you can only play with friends in the same region.

9. Game Update Required

  • Make sure you both have the latest game update installed.

10. Temporary Server Issues

  • Nintendo's servers might be experiencing temporary issues.

If you're still having trouble adding friends on ACNH, you can contact Nintendo support for assistance.
