Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Happy Home Paradise [nb 1] is a paid downloadable content expansion for Animal Crossing: New Horizons that was released one day after the 2.0 Free Update on November 5, 2021. It is a spiritual successor to Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer, in which the player can design homes and gardens for villagers and special characters to satisfy the client's specifications.
In Happy Home Paradise, the player can travel to an archipelago to work for Paradise Planning, a resort that specializes in the design of custom-built vacation homes within the archipelago's varied environments.
Release [edit]
Happy Home Paradise was announced alongside the 2.0 Free Update in an Animal Crossing: New Horizons Direct on October 15, 2021.[2] The contents of Happy Home Paradise are contained within the 2.0 update, and Happy Home Paradise items are available through trading to players without the paid DLC, but access to the Paradise Planning archipelago is only unlocked once the DLC is purchased. While the free update was released at 10 AM JST (1 AM UTC) on November 4, 2021, 24 hours ahead of its scheduled release date, the Happy Home Paradise expansion was launched at 12 AM local time on November 5, 2021.
The DLC is available for purchase from the Nintendo eShop for US$24.99[nb 2] or as a part of the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack service for US$49.99[nb 2] per year. People who use Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack for Happy Home Paradise will lose access to the archipelago if they lose membership in the Expansion Pack, but will still retain many of the tools obtained through Happy Home Paradise for usage at their home island.[3] Pre-orders became available on October 29, 2021.
A download card for Happy Home Paradise will be available in Japan,[4] and a Nintendo Switch game case containing a download code will be available in South Korea.[5]
Gameplay [edit]
Paradise Planning [edit]
A player about to choose the "I want to work" option
When the DLC is downloaded, if Resident Services has been upgraded to a building, the player receives a phone call from Tom Nook asking them to visit him and a visitor at the airport. At the airport, Nook introduces the player to Lottie and asks them if they would like to help her design homes. After the player agrees, the option "I want to go to work" becomes available when speaking to Orville. Choosing this option takes the player to a resort archipelago where characters go to find vacation homes. The player works for Paradise Planning, a resort developer, alongside Lottie and new characters Niko and Wardell.
After designing 20 houses, the player is asked by Lottie to prepare their island for a special music festival by completing 10 additional vacation homes and building 2 additional facilities, a hospital and an apparel shop. This culminates in the island receiving a visit from DJ KK, who performs a special music festival.
The player also receives a package from Nintendo containing a Paradise Planning Photo.
Designing homes [edit]
The player designing the interior of Maple's home
The player's job at Paradise Planning is to design vacation homes for villagers and special characters. These characters appear on the archipelago's central island, which also hosts Paradise Planning's office. The first villager that the player works for is Eloise. However, in the instance that Eloise is living on the player's island or staying at the island's campsite, the game will pull up the next villager from the following internal list in order until there is a villager that is not on the player's island: Olivia, Julia, Willow, Friga, Blanche, Cleo, Vivian, Purrl, Bree, Blaire, and Tasha.
Once the player chooses to design a home for a character, they are given the option to choose which island to build the home on; each island has different features, and some have different seasons. Once the island is chosen, the player places furniture items chosen by the character, and from there the interior and exterior of the home can be decorated freely.
As the player designs more homes, more furniture becomes available to use. Homes the player has designed can be remodeled. The player can also suggest existing clients that have a completed home to include roommates. The roommates that the player chooses to add will merge their furniture from their housing order with that of the existing villager's catalog. The player can also rename the villager's theme to their choosing after remodeling.
After the player designs a home, Lottie rewards them with Poki, a currency that can be used at the Paradise Planning shop. The amount increases as the player's job status improves.
Personalization features [edit]

- Partition walls, which share the same texture as the wallpaper set. They are unlocked after completing eight housing requests, and come in the form of a DIY recipe.
- Counters, in both full-height and half-height. These can be obtained as DIY recipes from Niko.
- Pillars, which can be used with partition walls to provided a right angle corner. These can be obtained as DIY recipes from Niko.
- Lighting customization, where the color and brightness settings can be adjusted. This feature is unlocked while customizing the Café or Restaurant facility.
- Resizing a room, where the player can set the room as low as 4x4 to as large as 10x10. This feature is unlocked while customizing the School facility.
- Soundscapes, constant ambient sounds played in a room. This feature is unlocked after completing 17 housing requests and sitting next to Wardell afterwards. Six more Soundscapes are unlocked after completing 25 housing requests. Eight more Soundscapes are unlocked after completing 33 housing requests.
- Polishing, which gives furniture an animated effect of several different choices. Polishing is unlocked after completing four housing requests.
Happy Home Network [edit]
The menu of the Happy Home Network app.
A Happy Home Network app can be accessed on the player's NookPhone, where the player can view and visit the homes they have designed. A photo of the house can be taken through the Photo app, and if more than one is taken, then the player can decide to discard either the original image or the retaken one. Houses can be shared over the internet, and players can follow other designers.
Paradise Planning office [edit]

Paradise Planning has an office on the central island where Lottie, Wardell, and Niko work. When finished designing the interior of a villager's new vacation home, the player goes to Lottie to get their Poki, the currency used at Paradise Planning instead of Bells. The player is then able to purchase items with their earnings.
amiibo [edit]
After completing seven housing requests, amiibo cards and figures can be scanned at the Paradise Planning office front desk to invite the respective character to have their vacation home designed. While most amiibo can be used right away, certain amiibo (such as Lottie's) can only be used later.
Shop [edit]
A shop area in the Paradise Planning office sells five exclusive furniture items. The five items that they have change every day, and all are items that can also be found at Nook's Cranny. The player is also able to purchase Souvenir Chocolates, that, when given to a villager on the player's island, can convince the villager receiving to request a vacation home.
AB&PD [edit]
After playing Happy Home Paradise for quite some time, Lottie will set up an Automated Bell and Poki Dispenser, to allow the player to deposit Poki and do exchanges between Bells and Poki. There is a limit of 
30,000 Bells and 
15,000 Poki that can be exchanged at a time.
Facilities [edit]

Five facilities–the School, Café, Restaurant, Hospital, and Apparel Shop–can be designed in the vacant buildings on the main island.

Once this is established, various villagers from across the islands will come by to use the facility.

Main island features [edit]
The player offering to remodel Erik's house.
Various features unlocked while designing homes for Paradise Planning can be used in the player's own home, including partition walls, counters, pillars, lighting customization, and soundscapes. Furniture can also be polished.
The player can invite villagers from their island to Paradise Planning by giving them Souvenir Chocolates. Additionally, the houses of the villagers on the player's island can be customized after 30 homes are designed with Paradise Planning and DJ KK makes his visit, though room-size adjustments will be unavailable for the remodeling of a villager's house. The player can also reset a villager's interior through Isabelle after unlocking the ability to redesign other villager's houses.
Anything that occurs on the main island can also affect what occurs on the archipelago. If a villager that was invited to the archipelago through being gifted a Souvenir Chocolates moves out or if a villager that arrived on the archipelago prior was invited to stay on the player's main island, their vacation home will be unavailable for a remodel and they cannot be placed under any role positions in any facility while they are in boxes.
