If I were given the option to transport myself into any video game, Animal CrossingOpens in a new tab would be a contender for my new home. Interacting with the friendly, if a bit demanding, villagers every day would be a delight. I’d make all sorts of anthropomorphized animal pals, which sounds like heaven. But this idea gets even better when I imagine all those villagers merged with characters from Star WarsOpens in a new tab. This brilliant notion didn’t even cross my mind until I viewed the work of a fan artist named Desmond on Twitter, that gives sequel trilogy characters such as Captain PhasmaOpens in a new tab and General Hux Animal Crossing makeovers.
Since Domhnall Gleeson recently remindedOpens in a new tab the world Hux is the most beloved character in all of Star Wars, let’s look at him first. He is a ginger, grumpy cat–as he should be.
The Resistance members are bears, except Poe Dameron, who is a cool looking dog.

The collection’s rounded out with First Order fiends Phasma and Kylo Ren. They’re wolves, because of course they are.

You can view the entire line-up of Star Wars characters as Animal Crossing villagers in the gallery below.
