Welcome to our ‘Animal Crossing: New Horizons-How To Get The Ladder?‘ guide. The Animal Crossing: New Horizons ladder is a must-have in the early stages and for visiting Nook Miles Tickets islands. Your new desolate island has several levels, so jump on the Animal Crossing: New Horizons ladder immediately.
A new gadget for the game, it’s a cute expanding ladder that lets you leap to higher levels, similar to Death Stranding’s but more robust. Your island will have at least one more level to locate resources and grow your community. However, you don’t receive the ladder until late in the game, thus top levels on your island and others you’ll visit using Nook Miles Tickets are initially off-limits.

Animal Crossing: New Horizon – Instructions to get the ladder
If you’re like me and willing to do everything Tom Nook says, you’ll receive the ladder on Day 4 of your island trip. First, do a few things. Here’s a checklist:
- Invite a new villager to your island. You should use Nook Miles Tickets as quickly as possible. After paying your relocation expenses, you may buy a ticket for 2,000 Miles at the Nook Stop terminal in Residents’ Services. These allow you to temporarily travel to a smaller, randomly produced desolate island. You may collect crafting supplies, strange fruit, and more, but you may also find a castaway wanting to migrate to your island. If you notice one, just chat to them a few times, and they’ll be interested. If you say yes, they’ll contact Tom Nook to make the necessary preparations. At this point, I’d already recruited three new people to my island, so it’s unclear whether you need three to access the next step or if one would do.
- Ask Tom Nook for a bridge kit. Tom Nook must approve these newcomers before they may migrate to your island. When he gives you a bridge-building formula, the procedure begins. You’ll need four log posts, four clay pieces, and four stone lumps to create it, then you may open it up. You’ll have extra area for holding lots for incoming inhabitants.
- Prepare new resident plots. Tom Nook promised these new island residents fully furnished houses inside and out, therefore you must construct six pieces of furniture for each family. Mr. Nook gives you fresh recipes to furnish the new residences. One of the products you’ll need to manufacture involves flowers on the upper levels of your island. No ladder? Tom Nook will call when you’ve placed all three plots for your new tenants. He’ll explain flower access and supply a ladder recipe. Then create one at Residents’ Services. It requires four wood, four hardwood, and four softwood.
