Ocarina of Time Remake Will Support All Existing Zelda Amiibo With In-Game Item Bonuses
The new Ocarina of Time Remake overview trailer has confirmed support for all Zelda amiibo, old and new.
The upcoming Ocarina of Time remake for Nintendo Switch 2 promises to retain compatibility with all existing Zelda amiibo figures, offering players in-game item bonuses. This announcement was made alongside the reveal of two new amiibo figures, Young Link and Young Zelda. However, the specific benefits of this compatibility remain undisclosed; it appears players will receive useful items like healing hearts, Green Potions, and a Deku Stick, but not exclusive cosmetics or weapons.
The amiibo system works similarly to previous Zelda titles and Tears of the Kingdom, where non-Zelda amiibo can be scanned daily for small rewards. For those eagerly awaiting the Ocarina of Time remake, pre-orders are now available with various stock levels across retailers. Additionally, the game will come with wearable masks for Zelda and Link, purchasable via pre-order.
Nintendo launched the amiibo product line with the Wii U, and each figure comes with a small figurine and a scanable card granting players various in-game benefits. Despite the high demand for these figures, especially for major Zelda releases, some older amiibo have become scarce on the market. For enthusiasts seeking older releases, pre-owned options are available at GameStop with a 'Pre-Owned' guarantee, while third-party sellers can be found at popular retailers like Target, Best Buy, and eBay. The Ocarina of Time remake is set to launch on November 5 for $10 off at major online retailers.
