Harv's Island just got a whole lot more exciting after the Animal Crossing: New Horizons 2.0 update. Rather than just being a place where Harv will let you use his photo studio, Harv has opened up a co-op where other Animal Crossing characters can open shops and sell their goods and services. However, the stores aren't automatically there, and you need to follow a few steps to get a thriving island co-op. Let's take a look at the steps it takes to get there.



Unlock Harv's Island

If you're a new player, you may not have Harv's Island yet. To unlock it, you need to have three villagers on your island, not just the two you start with. Once you get a third villager, you can fly to Harv's Island via your island's airport. There you can use his photo studio right from the start.

Go to the cooperative

Once the first stage is complete, you can go further north of the island to a new clearing where Harv will introduce you to Harriet, a pink poodle hairdresser. As soon as you can access the co-op, Harriet is there and available to cut your hair and add new styles to your vanity/mirror. But how to unlock the rest of the shops?

Add shops to the cooperative

Once per day, you can pay 100 Lloid Bells to create a new store on the co-op. This shop will be added to the cooperative the next day. In total, there are eight stores you can unlock for co-op. Each belongs to a different character or duo. Some of these stores are run by characters who already visit your island day-to-day, while others are brand new to this iteration of the franchise. To get all eight shops, you will need eight game days and 000 Bells.
