How to Get Gyroids in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
InAnimal Crossing: New Horizons, players can acquire Gyroids by burying Gyroid fragments, watering them, and digging them out the next day. These can also be customized on a DIY workbench. The only Gyroid that can’t be “planted” or bought is brewstoid, which looks exactly like Brewster and can be obtained from him.

Hopefully, future games can include new Gyroid designs as well.
