Snake Pass update brings original icon back, new arcade mode

For almost a year the Snake Pass icon on the Nintendo Switch has been a point of contention. When Sumo Digital updated it to match the other consoles, not a lot of people were happy.

Well, fear not, the icon is back to its old self – you can all rest easy.

The real news here is that Snake Pass now has an arcade mode as well. You can now play through each of the game’s 15 levels to get the high score, complete with online leaderboards.

Snake Pass: Arcade Mode Pack adds a whole new way to play Snake Pass! Snake around each of Snake Pass’ 15 levels, eating as much fruit as possible to earn huge scores! Rack up massive multipliers and race to the gate before the time runs out as you compete with friends with full online leaderboard support. The Snake Pass: Arcade Mode Pack is sure to bring you back to Haven Tor time and time again for another bite! Upon completion of a level in the story, Arcade Mode will be unlocked for it. When selecting the level, you will see an “Arcade Mode” option available, select it and start racking up those high scores!

Even better news! Snake Pass is now 50% off on the eShop bringing it down to just $13.
