Splatoon Nintendo Switch Online Icons Return: How to Claim the Rerun on Your Nintendo Switch

Nintendo fans and Splatoon enthusiasts have a new reason to celebrate, as the popular Splatoon Nintendo Switch Online profile icons have returned for a limited-time rerun.

Available exclusively to Nintendo Switch Online members, these customizable user icons allow players to add a splash of Inkling style to their profiles—perfect for expressing their passion for one of Nintendo's most vibrant franchises. Splatoon, developed and published by Nintendo, first made waves with its unique multiplayer ink-shooting gameplay and has since become one of the most recognizable titles in the Nintendo Switch library.

Nintendo Switch Online consistently enhances the user experience through digital rewards, and themed profile icons like those from Splatoon represent a core part of this ongoing initiative. Starting this week, Nintendo announced the rerun of Splatoon icon sets, meaning players who missed out on previous waves of these icons now have a second chance.

As of October 17, 2025, active Nintendo Switch Online members can use their saved up Platinum Points to redeem a diverse collection of Splatoon-themed profile icons—all available for the next four weeks on the service. To access and redeem these exclusive icons, simply navigate to the Nintendo Switch Online application located at the bottom of your Nintendo Switch Home Screen menu.

Once inside, look for the "Missions & Rewards" section and browse the refreshed catalog of user icons.

Each icon can be customized to fit your preferences, letting you mix and match backgrounds and character art for a personalized Nintendo Switch profile. A Nintendo spokesperson stated that the return of these icons reflects ongoing efforts to give fans new ways to express themselves and engage with beloved Nintendo franchises.

The company continues to support the Nintendo Switch platform with a wide variety of digital rewards and community-focused features, ensuring that both longtime and new users have access to exclusive content year-round. Nintendo Switch Online has consistently offered a range of themed icons since the feature debuted in 2022, with popular sets drawing from acclaimed games such as Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, and The Legend of Zelda.

The return of Splatoon icons has been met with enthusiasm from users, many of whom missed previous opportunities due to the limited-time rotation system. To claim the Splatoon icons, make sure your Nintendo Switch Online membership is active and you have enough Platinum Points, which are earned by completing specific missions on the Nintendo eShop and My Nintendo website.

The rerun will be available for four weeks, so be sure to act fast if you want to expand your icon collection with these Splatoon favorites. For additional information and the latest updates, visit the official Nintendo website or the Nintendo Switch Online section on your console.
