The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is the latest installment in the Zelda franchise that offers amiibo support.
Like Breath of the Wild, scanning amiibo figures will grant players bonus items, some of which are themed to previous Legend of Zelda games. Amiibo rewards vary from paraglider fabrics to armor, weapons, or materials, depending on the amiibo figure used. However, it’s worth noting that each reward is not guaranteed each time a player scans an amiibo figure, so multiple scans may be necessary to unlock all related items. With a once-per-day scanning limit per individual amiibo, it may take some time to unlock everything within the figure’s reward pool. But, players can rest assured that everything an amiibo can unlock can also be found in-game. A new Link amiibo that was announced alongside the release date of Tears of the Kingdom unlocks cool in-game extras when scanned by the Nintendo Switch. In this guide, we’ll provide a comprehensive list of amiibo rewards and unlocks in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
Zelda: Tears of The Kingdom – All Amiibo Rewards & Unlocks:
To access amiibo scanning, players can simply tap the amiibo figure from their ability wheel. If scanning is disabled, it can be enabled from the Options menu. Amiibo rewards range from themed glider fabrics to sword drops, vegetables, herbs, minerals, and armor sets. However, not all amiibo figures have unique rewards; some have generic items. For instance, most Link amiibo figures drop a type of generic sword, while Zelda amiibo figures grant minerals, herbs, and flowers. It’s worth noting that while each respective reward is not guaranteed each time a player scans an amiibo, some rewards like paraglider fabrics are yet to be found in-game and can only be unlocked through amiibo scanning.
Players can use the Link amiibo figure that was released alongside Tears of the Kingdom to unlock cool in-game extras. However, the figure needs to be scanned with the Nintendo Switch to unlock the rewards. The rewards include themed glider fabric and sword drops.
