Amiibo Compatibility Guide For Xenoblade Chronicles 3

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is the next big Nintendo published title, and like every Nintendo game, it has Amiibo support. If you didn't know, Amiibo are character figurines that you can scan in the games on Nintendo consoles and earn rewards like new items or character skins.

So far, Monolith Soft has confirmed one major Amiibo in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 that will give you an exclusive weapon skin (more on that later.)

If you're wondering how Amiibo works in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and what in-game rewards you can get by scanning these figurines, don't fret. Here's our Amiibo compatibility guide for Xenoblade Chronicles 3. 

All Amiibo rewards in Xenoblade Chronicles 3

Shulk Amiibo is the one you need if you want the best Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Amiibo reward. Shulk was the protagonist of 2010's Xenoblade Chronicles, and with the Amiibo, you will be able to use Shulk's Monado sword skin in Xenoblade Chronicles 3. 

Any character of the Swordfight class will be able to use the Monado sword skin, including the Xenoblade Chronicles 3's protagonist Noah.

All remaining Amiibo are also supported in Xenoblade Chronicles, but they won't give you exclusive skins. In fact, the rewards are random and come in Collectible Sets that include items like - Frangible Yam, Lucky Spice, Pink Asparagus, Tasty Sausage, Thousand Carrot, and more.

How to Use Amiibo rewards Xenoblade Chronicles 3

You can scan the Amiibo in the Amiibo section of the system settings in the Xenoblade Chronicles. It's rather simple, though you can only scan three Amiibo in a day. You will be able to scan Amiibo right after completing the game's tutorial. 

To use the Monado sword skin, go to the Clothing section of the Character's menu and select Attachments to equip it. As for the items in the Collectibles set, they will fall next to your character in the game.

Where to buy Amiibo in Xenoblade Chronicles 3

You can't buy Amiibo in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 since they are not in-game items. You can, however, buy these from Nintendo's official Amiibo website or third-party sites like Amazon, Gamestop, etc. 

We recommend buying the Shulka Amiibo if you really want the Shulk's Monado sword skin. Unless you're a huge Amiibo hoarder, the other rewards are not really worth investing in an Amiibo. 

That's everything you need to know about Amiibo in Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
