Why am I not getting villagers on islands?
You are not getting villagers on islands because there needs to be an empty plot available for villagers to spawn, and once you have invited a villager to your island, no further villagers will appear on Mystery Islands until you have another empty plot. The villager invitation process is also influenced by factors such as Nook Miles Tickets, Mystery Islands, and the number of villagers already on your island.
Understanding Villager Invitation Process
To invite villagers to your island, you need to use Nook Miles Tickets to fly to Mystery Islands and find a villager camping out, then invite them to visit your island. The villager will then begin the moving-in process the next day, but only if you have an empty plot available.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why won’t my villager come to my island?
You need to build Nooks Cranny and submit all the furniture for all the houses before any villagers will move in.
How do you get villagers to show up on an island?
Use Nook Miles Tickets to fly to Mystery Islands, and if you see a random villager camping out that you like, tell them to visit your island next – and there’s a big chance they’ll be the ones reserving a spot in the furnished houses.
How often do you find villagers on islands?
After setting everything up, one new villager will visit the island every day. After three days, your resident total will reach 6 (that includes you!), and you’ll be able to invite even more folks to your island for a maximum of 10 villagers.

Villagers are not equally likely to appear on Mystery Islands, as the game rolls for the species first, and then chooses one villager from that species that isn’t already in your town and puts them on a Mystery Island.
Are villagers on islands random?
