Zelda and Loftwing amiibo arrive alongside Skyward Sword HD
Advertisement
It was a little odd when Nintendo announced Skyward Sword HD that there wasn’t a new amiibo now – they’ve now fixed that.
Releasing alongside the game, the Zelda and Loftwing amiibo not only features a Loftwing but can essentially be used in game as one. If you use the amiibo in the game you can return to the sky at any point – it’ll also let you return to that same point as well – even in dungeons. Handy!
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD and the Zelda and Loftwing amiibo are out on July 16th and will cost $34.95AUD. You can now preorder the amiibo from Amazon, EB Games, JB Hi-Fi, The Gamesmen and the My Nintendo Store.

It’s an absolute beauty, but unfortunately really expensive considering it looks like a standard-sized figure, and even more so considering that it functions as little more than a glorified cheat code. I assume that it will also function as a Breath of the Wild Zelda amiibo for the purposes of item spawns (which doesn’t spawn any exclusive items either).
EB is also offering a steelbook as a pre-order bonus. As much as I hate paying full RRP, EB’s got me in the bag this time around. 😛
