After the announcement of a The Legend of Zelda: Tears of The Kingdom Amiibo at the last Nintendo Direct, the company’s official Twitter account has clarified how Amiibo will work in the upcoming game.
In short, Zelda-themed Amiibo will give the player materials and weapons, much like they did in Breath of the Wild. They can also provide various paraglider fabrics and which one you receive seems to be based on which Amiibo you use. Pictured fabrics include one based on Link’s outfit in Tears of the Kingdom, one with a light blue pastel color and the symbol of Skyloft’s Knights from Skyward Sword, and a glider fabric with a print of Majora’s Mask from the game of the same name.
Scanning amiibo from The Legend of Zelda series will also give you helpful materials and weapons. You can receive helpful materials, weapons or a paraglider fabric based on the amiibo you scanned. pic.twitter.com/DrWcOEPLkE
