Zelda and Ganondorf amiibo are slated for later this year
For a minute there, I held my breath!
During today’s June 21 Nintendo Direct, Nintendo talked about how successful Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has been globally, and I thought for a moment: “Are we getting a Tears of the Kingdom DLC tease?” Nope! Just more amiibo. I’m sure all of you are thrilled.
Nintendo confirmed both Zelda and Ganondorf amiibo figures, which were heavily rumored thanks to some recent datamining efforts. No footage was shown off in terms of what they actually bring to the table digitally, but we did get a good look at the figures themselves, and they are fantastic.
This dual reveal comes directly after the recent news of Zelda amiibo restocks
Nintendo seems committed to getting a ton of Zelda amiibo back into circulation, as they confirmed prior to the Nintendo Direct that there was going to be a wide restock of old figures. This led to all sorts of speculation that they’d reveal more Tears of the Kingdom amiibo, which turned out to be accurate.
We still have the Sages/new Champions too! Maybe we’ll get a reveal down the line after the inevitable DLC announcement.
