Genshin Impact player recreates Xiao, Raiden, and Hu Tao as Animal Crossing villagers

Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Genshin Impact, two of the most popular role-playing games globally, share many common features. While villagers are the biggest highlight in ACNH, characters play a pivotal role in miHoYo's free-to-play title.

Genshin Impact even added the Serenitea Pot feature in the 1.5 update, which largely resembles the island-building mechanics of New Horizons. Hence, it comes as no surprise that many players thoroughly enjoy both games.

One such gamer has recreated Genshin Impact characters as ACNH villagers, and this unofficial crossover has received an overwhelmingly positive response from both communities.

Will Genshin Impact character make good Animal Crossing: New Horizons villagers?

Just like villagers in ACNH, Genshin Impact's characters have unique personalities. For instance, Sayu can join the list of Lazy/Smug Animal Crossing villagers such as Punchy, Biskit, and Joey.

On the flip side, Ningguang, Raiden Shogun, and Jean can be viewed as Snooty villagers. Just like Blanche and Claudia, these female characters are more mature and higher-class.

Eula, often perceived as rude by Paimon, can be a Cranky villager in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Lastly, Xiangling and Yoimiya can be Peppy villagers in Nintendo's life-simulator game as they are very outgoing and never refrain from helping others.

It is self-evident that a crossover between Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Genshin Impact can be a massive success among fans.

As of now, the ACNH community is celebrating the arrival of new villagers such as Brewster, while the Genshin community is heavily spending Primogems on Hu Tao's banner.
