There's a whole range of Animal Crossing Zelda items to buy, including clothing to let you dress up as Link or Zelda, but you need an amiibo to unlock it. Thankfully, any Legend of Zelda Series amiibo will do, so you just need to give it a tap after activating the relevant option at the Nook Stop terminal, then everything fit for a champion of Hyrule will be available to order. Full details on what you need to do to unlock these Zelda items in Animal Crossing New Horizons are below, as well as a list of all the items and their price in Bells.

To unlock all Zelda items in Animal Crossing New Horizons, you just need to activate any of the many Legend of Zelda amiibos in your game – any version of Link, Zelda, or any The Legend of Zelda Series amiibo will work. You should have it already too but you need to have the Animal Crossing New Horizons 3.0 update installed – just in case you haven't here's how you update Animal Crossing New Horizons too.

To do so, head to the Resident Services building on your island's plaza and log into the Nook Stop terminal. From here, select the 'Invite amiibo Camper' option, then follow the instructions, ending with you tapping your Zelda-related amiibo on the control stick of your Switch 1 or Switch 2's right Joy-Con. At this point, all the ACNH Zelda items will now be available to buy from the Nook Stop, but you'll also have the option to invite either Mineru or Tulin to your island's campsite – this is not required to get the Zelda items, but it does allow you to potentially invite them to become permanent residents of your island.

To buy the Zelda items, log into the Nook Stop again and select the 'Nook Shopping' option. From here, you need to select 'Special Goods', then switch to the 'Promotion' tab. Here you'll see a list of all 28 Zelda items available to order, but remember that orders are limited to five per day and they'll be delivered to your mailbox the following day, so you'll have to choose carefully and be patient as you amass your triforce collection.
