Splatoon’s original features included the ability to use only specified amiibo and unlock their brand-new gears and bonuses. This legacy is continued and in Splatoon 3, they are even more amiibo to collect and unlock items from.
Amiibo are the figurines released by Nintendo for you to purchase. You can purchase these Amiibos from Amazon or the official website of Nintendo. In this guide, we will go over all the amiibo available for Splatoon 3 and what each one unlocks.
How to unlock all Amiibo gear sets in Splatoon 3
After receiving the Amiibo you will need to head to the Amiibo Booth in Square in the game.
After reaching the booth, place the Amiibo Figurine on the Joycon of your Nintendo Switch and the console will scan and render their characteristics in the game. Now talk to it and save the character to get the Gear rewards.
Below is a list of all the amiibo gear reward unlocks you get after scanning them in Splatoon 3
Pearl and Marina
In Splatoon 2, Off the Hook took the place of the Squid Sisters, and Marina the Octoling is one half of that fearless duo. If you purchase her, you’ll also get Pearl, the Inkling!
You can get the Marinated Slip-Ons, Marinated Top, and Marinated Headphones (all of which have Special Saver abilities) by scanning (Ink Recovery Up Ability).
