Tears of the Kingdom Icons Return to Nintendo Switch Online Rewards
Posted on May 17 2024 by Nick Miller
In commemoration of Tears of the Kingdom‘s one-year anniversary, Nintendo of America has announced via a post on X that they will be rolling out Tears of the Kingdom icons for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers. These icons, some of which were made available earlier this year, feature the characters Link, Zelda, King Rauru, Queen Sonia, Ganondorf, and a Korok, as well as a variety of elements such as borders and backgrounds. This comes following the release of A Link to the Past icons earlier this month.
For ten My Nintendo Platinum Points each, these icons can be yours. Platinum Points are acquired by completing missions on NSO. Missions include activities such as playing certain games, playing game trials, or backing up your save data.
You can now redeem your #MyNintendo Platinum Points to collect custom icons from The Legend of #Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, available until 5/27 at 6pm PT. Icon elements will be refreshed each week. #NintendoSwitchOnline #MissionsAndRewards
