Can you change your skin color in Animal Crossing: New Leaf?
Nope, can't just go into a menu and pick a new skin tone like in later games. Gotta get that virtual tan if you want to change in New Leaf.

If you're looking to customize your character right out of the gate with different skin tones, New Leaf might leave you a bit disappointed. Thankfully, New Horizons stepped up the game with that option from the start!
Actually, in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, you can't directly change your character's skin color like you can in New Horizons. The way to change skin tone in New Leaf is a bit roundabout - you need to tan! Just spend time on the tropical island or out in the sun in your village during summer months. Be careful though, too much sun and you might just overdo it!
