All games need some kind of top tier fashion hunt that keeps your grinding. For Animal Crossing, that has traditionally been Golden Tools. These glammed out version of your everyday tools lend an air of style to the proceedings, and they have made their return in New Horizons.
We don’t know all the requirements for all the tools at the moment, but we do know some of them.
Golden Net
Catch every bug in the game at least once. There are 80 bugs in total.
Golden Fishing Rod
Catch every fish in the game at least once. There are 80 fish in total.
Golden Axe
To get the Golden Axe you will need to break 100 axes, that is to say, use them until they finally give up on you.
Golden Shovel
You will need to help Gulliver thirty times to get the recipe for the Golden Shovel.
Golden Watering Can
Maintain a perfect town for 15 days, then speak with Isabelle.
Golden Slingshot
Previous game – Shoot down 14 balloons, then hit the golden balloon.
We will be spending a lot more time on our island over the coming days and will be updating this list as we discover more about the requirements for those lovely Golden Tools.
If you found this guide helpful, we have other guides you might also like. From whether you can relocate Resident Services, how to get more residents, the maximum number of residents you can have on your island, and how to get your hands on those pesky floating balloon presents. We can also tell you everything you want to know about Nook Miles Tickets, how to get different types of fruit, and how to get your hands on the Pretty Good Tools Recipes.
