Still out in March
While we don’t have a newKirby and the Forgotten Landamiibo confirmation yet, we do know that it will support old figures at least. Annoyingly, this revealis just on the official Japanese site for the game, not the US site. But it’s still confirmation!
That very site reconfirms the co-op functionality (which works in everything but local play between two Switches), and simply states that amiibo “support” is in. At this point, therecouldbe a new amiibo announced forForgotten Land, but Nintendogenerallydoesn’t roll like that.
Typically amiibo are announced a little more than a few months in advance,just like the trio for theMonster Hunter RiseDLC. But anything is possible, and it could alwayscome later: Kirby figures are evergreen like that.
In any case, recent tepid amiibo support is typically “you get a power-up or extra lives,” so it’ll likely involve that for existing Kirby amiibo.There’s plenty to choose from. This is pretty much all the news amiibo fanatics have at the moment! Vague promises of some small feature in an upcoming game. But I know a lot of people will take it over amiibo unlocking bigger chunks of content, so for everyone who is done with the craze, it’s a win.
