Celebratory Icons for Animal Crossing: October's Birthday Themes and Benefits
Nintendo Switch Online Members Receive Exclusive Animal Crossing: New Horizons Themed Icon Elements
Nintendo Switch Online members have a unique opportunity to customize their online profiles with Animal Crossing: New Horizons themed icon elements. These exclusive digital assets were made available in October 2021, allowing members to redeem their My Nintendo Platinum Points for a selection of character icons and themed decorative elements.
Since the console's launch, Nintendo Switch users have had access to 12 Animal Crossing icons. With the 10.0.0 system update in April 2020, an additional set of 6 New Horizons-themed icons were released. The latest offering, however, is exclusively available to Nintendo Switch Online members [1].
These icon elements are not physical items but digital assets for customization. They can be purchased and redeemed through the Nintendo Switch Online app on the Nintendo Switch system. To qualify for these exclusive offerings, members must have a Nintendo Account, which is necessary to receive and redeem Platinum Points.
The icon elements focus on character icons and themed decorative elements tied to New Horizons, available at that time strictly for Switch Online members through Platinum Points redemption [1]. The specific icon elements available in October 2021 are not detailed in the search results, but they are inspired by Animal Crossing residents who celebrate their birthdays in October.
Nintendo Switch Online membership is required for online features, and it auto-renews after the initial term unless canceled. It's important to note that the membership is not available in all countries. More information about the membership can be found on the official website [1].
In addition to the icon elements, Nintendo Switch Online members can also earn Platinum Points by completing missions on the platform. The points can be used to purchase a variety of digital items, including more icon elements.
To ensure you don't miss out on any new icon elements, it's recommended to check the app regularly as they are refreshed each week. The icon elements featuring October birthdays are available now and will expire on November 6 at 5:59 p.m. PT. For more information about Missions & Rewards, visit the official website [1].
