Nintendo Reveals New Amiibo - ComicBook.com

Following today's Nintendo Direct Mini Partner Showcase, a trio of new Amiibo were revealed to tie-in with the release of Monster Hunter: Rise.

Monster Hunter: Rise was one of two Monster Hunter games announced for Nintendo Switch during the presentation!

The majority have been based on characters owned by Nintendo, but a few third-party games have received their own tie-in lines, as well.

Notably, this is the second game in Capcom's Monster Hunter series to receive a line of tie-in Amiibo, with the first being Monster Hunter Stories.

Given the fact that a sequel to Monster Hunter Stories was announced today alongside Monster Hunter: Rise, it seems possible that those figures could finally receive a local release.

Ultimate, while Amiibo of Cat Mario and Cat Peach will release in February alongside the Nintendo Switch debut of Super Mario 3D World.
