Nintendo has rolled out a fresh wave of exclusive customizations for its Nintendo Switch Online Missions & Rewards program, this time featuring beloved franchise Donkey Kong Bananza.
Available now through August 13, 2025, Switch Online subscribers can redeem their hard-earned My Nintendo Platinum Points for a variety of Donkey Kong Bananza icon elements directly on the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 platforms.
As part of an ongoing effort to expand value for Switch Online members, Nintendo periodically introduces limited-time icon customizations connected to hit games and celebrated franchises.
With this latest update, Donkey Kong fans can personalize their player profile with exclusive icons inspired by Donkey Kong Bananza, Nintendo’s highly anticipated entry in the classic series.
According to Nintendo of America, the Donkey Kong Bananza icon elements will rotate on a weekly schedule throughout the campaign period, refreshing every week to ensure constant variety and collectibility.
This means that users must check the Switch Online Missions & Rewards section regularly to secure the customizations they want before they rotate out.
"Players can redeem their My Nintendo Platinum Points to snag exclusive Donkey Kong Bananza icons, available through August 13 at 6 PM PT on Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2, with new icon elements cycling in each week," shared Nintendo of America via its official Twitter account.
Accessible through the Nintendo Switch Online app, Missions & Rewards has become a standout feature for subscribers, offering the ability to complete fun in-game tasks or missions to earn Platinum Points.
These points can then be exchanged not only for exclusive icon elements, but also for digital goods, discounts, and even physical items via the My Nintendo rewards program.
The introduction of Donkey Kong Bananza icons follows Nintendo’s ongoing tradition of celebrating popular franchises through Switch Online content.
Previous icon waves have included themes from major titles such as The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario, Splatoon, and Pokémon.
By tying icon rewards to active games and new releases, Nintendo keeps online engagement high and encourages the platform’s growing user base to engage regularly with the service.
For those eager to upgrade their Nintendo Switch or Nintendo Switch 2 profile, it is recommended to log in frequently and stay updated on the weekly icon rotation schedule.
With the Donkey Kong Bananza event running until August 13, 2025, fans have a limited time to collect these exclusive icons before they disappear from the Missions & Rewards lineup.
For full details and to browse the available offerings, players can visit the official My Nintendo Missions & Rewards section on their console’s home screen or check the official Nintendo website.
This latest addition further cements Nintendo’s commitment to providing ongoing value to its Switch Online community, ensuring fans of every franchise have something new to personalize and enjoy.
