  • Themed signage throughout the aquarium will feature creature descriptions presented by Blathers with information directly from the game.
  • Standees of familiar characters from the game throughout the aquarium near a wide variety of habitats.
  • My Nintendo kiosks where guests can check in to receive 100 My Nintendo Platinum Points redeemable on my.nintendo.com for exclusive digital and physical rewards.
  • Plus, guests may even have the opportunity to meet-and-greet Isabelle, Tom Nook, or K.K. Slider from the Animal Crossing: New Horizons game on select days and stops!
