Nintendo’s upcoming batch of The Legend of Zelda and Street Fighter 6 Amiibo figures are available to preorder at major retailers. The seven new figures will arrive alongside the Nintendo Switch 2 on June 5 and can interact with their respective launch games: Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Breath of the Wild, and Street Fighter 6: Years 1-2 Fighters Edition.
Nintendo Switch 2 Amiibo Preorders
All seven Amiibo figures received $10 price increases after Nintendo reevaluated the pricing for its first-party accessories as a result of US tariffs. As a result of this change, Tears of the Kingdom’s Champions Amiibo cost $30 each. A fifth new Zelda Amiibo based on Mineru’s Construct is expected to launch later this year, but a price hasn’t been announced yet. Zelda Amiibo figures typically cost $16, though there are figures with $20 MSRPs such as Tears of the Kingdom’s Ganondorf.
Street Fighter 6’s Amiibo figures, meanwhile, go for a staggering $40 each. This eyebrow-raising move means each figure is only $20 less than the game–and the game includes a bunch of free DLC. For another comparison: The previously released Ken and Ryu Smash Bros. Amiibo carry $16 retail prices. Neither figure is currently in print, but you can buy Ken and Ryu Amiibo for around $25 each from resellers.

This Amiibo depicts the young Rito, Tulin, with the powerful Great Eagle Bow.

Sidon is the Sage of Water, and this Amiibo shows him wielding the Lightscale Trident that was passed down from Mipha. He’s also adorned with a bunch of flashy jewelry you’d expect as the son of royalty. Like the other Amiibo, this one is compatible with Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

The defender of Chinatown strikes a pose with this flashy Amiibo, complete with a translucent blue background for added effect.

Luke is throwing a vicious uppercut in this Amiibo, which only looks more violent thanks to the dramatic orange effect flowing behind his fist. Like the Jamie Amiibo, this one gets you lots of functionality with Street Fighter 6 on Switch 2.

The aspiring ninja Kimberly comes to life with this Amiibo, as she’s shown bounding across the landscape–a trail of pink dust in her wake. Add the Amiibo to your collection to gain exclusive in-game content for Street Fighter 6 or save your settings to the Amiibo for quick transfer.
$40 | Releases June 5
The GameStop-exclusive Amiibo Cards for Street Fighter 6 can save players settings, including outfits and button configurations, as well as unlock photo frames and wallpapers. The set, which costs the same price as one Amiibo figure, includes all of the fighters from Year 1:

As mentioned, the other new Amiibo is for Mineru’s Construct. There’s no confirmed release date beyond “coming soon,” and a price is yet to be determined. It’s looking like it’ll be quite large, however, and it wouldn’t be surprising if it retailed for a higher price than the other four Champions.
Preorders for the Nintendo Switch 2 versions of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Breath of the Wild, and Street Fighter 6 will be available on April 24, too.
- The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild — $70 | June 5
- The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom — $80 | June 5
