Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity is arriving very soon and such more details about the game’s contents and features are beginning to surface online.
One such feature is how amiibo will work with the game.
Item delivery service
That’s more or less it. On the main menu there’s an “amiibo” option. You scan figures and get weapons or items/currency, then be on your way.
You can scan five amiibo per day, so like it was with Hyrule Warriors proper, there’s a daily limit.
Destructoid did a good test of this;
First scan was the Twilight Princess Zelda amiibo, which granted me a low level Ancient Memory Part (Zelda weapon).
Ssecond scan, I used a more out-there amiibo: Solaire of Astora, from Dark Souls. He granted me x5 Stealthfin Trouts, x5 Blue Nightshades, and x5 Restless Crickets. All of these are reagents for items/upgrades in the game.
The third scan was my Twilight Princess Link amiibo, which gave me a low level Soldier’s Broadsword for Link.
The fourth scan was Twilight Princess Zelda, which gifted another Ancient Memory Part.
For the fourth and final go, Sheik gave me x2 Sapphires.
After that, I tried to scan another amiibo (Archer Link): and the message “you can’t receive more rewards from amiibo accessories today” popped up.
It seems that’s what we’re looking at for amiibo functionality. In recent years support has waned to bonuses like these, so it was completely expected.
