The legendary decorative icons from The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom game are available for a brief period!
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, the highly anticipated sequel to Breath of the Wild, has introduced a new range of icon elements in the My Nintendo Platinum Points rewards system. These rewards, available to Nintendo Switch Online members, include digital wallpapers and game-themed keychains, with prices ranging from 550-600 points depending on region.
Starting around early August 2025, these icon rewards have been made available, with key dates including August 5 and August 6 for promotional news and reward add-ons. The general availability window for these rewards extends at least until September 1, 2025, with some promotional items noted as "available while supplies last."
On August 5, 2025, Nintendo announced new Nintendo Switch Online missions ending September 1, allowing players to earn Platinum Points that can be redeemed for retro icons, likely including Tears of the Kingdom related icons. The following day, on August 6, the Tears of the Kingdom keychain was featured as a new physical reward, and a new piece of Tears of the Kingdom Game Awards artwork was added as a wallpaper/icon reward.
The limited-time availability for some Tears of the Kingdom icons is indicated to last until around May 25 (likely 2026, given the August 2025 date), but this may refer to prior or overlapping campaign dates; recent rewards remain available through mid-2025 summer campaigns.
To redeem these rewards, users need to have a Nintendo Account and a Nintendo Switch Online membership, which is not available in all countries. Membership for Nintendo Switch Online auto-renews after the initial term at the then-current price.
The icon elements featuring The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom game are available during specific time periods, with each wave lasting approximately a week. Users are advised to check the Nintendo Switch Online app regularly to avoid missing any new icon elements.
In The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, players embark on a journey through the sprawling landscapes of Hyrule and the mysterious islands floating in the vast skies above, where Link has new abilities to fight against malevolent forces threatening the kingdom.
