Xenoblade Chronicles 3’s newest patch adds in the latest amiibo duo

You don't need the amiibo for the rewards, but you'll probably want them

In case you missed it, two new amiibo have a street date of today, January 19, 2024. I know, these things pop up unexpectedly! Those two additions are Noah and Mio, two of the primary protagonists from 2022’s Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

Yes, it’s been nearly two years since that game came out, but 2023’s Future Redeemed DLC helped keep it fresh in our minds. Well, the DLC and the aforementioned amiibo drop, of course. Those two amiibo come with special outfits, which can be unlocked instantly by scanning the figures in: we have a full guide here if you need help.

Can you get the Noah and Mio amiibo rewards without the amiibo figures?

Note that you can acquire the amiibo outfits through other means, but it’s not going to be easy, unless you have an endgame save file handy. Requirements range from defeating a superboss (Seraphic Ceratinia) to spending several hundred Nopon Coins at the Nopon Coin X-change at the Sage’s Domicile.

You can find the full patch notes below.

Latest update: Ver. 2.2.0 (Released January 18, 2024) [Full notes]

Additional Functionality

  • Now compatible with “Noah” and “Mio” amiibo. By scanning the amiibo in “System” > “amiibo” in the Menu Screen, you will be able to use the following special clothing items.
    • Noah amiiboYou can acquire the “N’s Consul Suit” outfit for Noah. You can also get variations without Noah, Lanz, or Euni’s jacket.
    • Mio amiiboYou can acquire the “M’s Consul Suit” outfit for Mio. You can also get variations without Mio, Sena, or Taion’s jacket.
  • Fulfill certain conditions and talk to the NPC Miibomii at Llyn Nyddwr Camp in the Fornis region to receive rewards identical to what would be received with the Noah or Mio amiibo.
