Nintendo has revealed that it is working with Baskin-Robbins to hold a collaboration campaign themed after Animal Crossing in Japan. This campaign will run at Baskin-Robbins outlets across Japan throughout the entirety of July 2026.
The main highlight of this collaboration will be an exclusive ice cream flavor themed after the uninhabited island during the summer season in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. The staff will combine the green, vanilla, and blue colors to represent forests, beaches, and seas. The flavor will also come with chocolate-colored fish shadows.
The above flavor will be available via the Nook Inc. Special Double Cup that comes attached with a spoon keychain featuring Timmy and Tommy. Purchases of Double Cups, Sundaes, and Special Sets made within July 2026 will also come with Animal Crossing-themed packaging.
Additionally, Nintendo also implements a time-limited GPS Check-In feature in the Japanese version of the Nintendo Store app. Those who have a Japanese account on the app and have purchased any products from the campaign can then use the check-in feature and show it to the staff to receive a bonus sticker sheet.
Baskin-Robbins has also uploaded a trailer promoting the Animal Crossing collaboration on its Japanese official YouTube channel, which is titled 31 Ice Cream:
The Baskin-Robbins Animal Crossing collaboration campaign will run in Japan from July 1 to 31, 2026.
