Chester is alazybear cubvillager in theAnimal Crossing series. He first appeared inAnimal Crossing: City Folk and has appeared in all subsequent games. His name may come from "chess," referring to his black and white color scheme. This is further supported by his catchphrase, which can be derived from the rook chess piece.

InNew Horizons, Chester has the playhobby and can run around with his arms extended at any time, rather than only outside Resident Services during a scripted activity with a group of villagers.
