Nintendo has a wide range of amiibo figures for many of its series, and that includes The Legend of Zelda. Since the company began making these figures, many more have been added to the collection, so there are plenty of options to choose from if you're a fan of the games.

Not only do these figures come in a range of designs representing various titles and characters, but they also have different functions in-game when you scan them. Each amiibo figure comes with its own unique rewards, so you may want to consider their in-game functionality before you purchase one too.

Best Amiibo For The Legend Of Zelda Fans

Twilight Princess is one of the most beloved entries in The Legend of Zelda series, largely in part to Wolf Link and Midna. This amiibo figure celebrates both of these characters and shows them how you'd often see the pair in the game — Midna sitting on Wolf Link's back while in her imp form.

The amiibo also has some of the best functionality when scanned into your games. In Breath of the Wild, you can scan the amiibo and have Wolf Link join you on your adventure in Hyrule. To boost his hearts in this game, you can scan the figure into Twilight Princess HD and complete the Cave of Shadows, which can only be entered by using the amiibo. You also have the chance to get your hands on an amiibo-exclusive Mirror of Twilight paraglider fabric in Tears of the Kingdom by scanning it into this game.

Launched alongside Skyward Sword HD, the Zelda & Loftwing amiibo has intricate detail in its design, portraying Zelda petting her Loftwing. Its main fuctionality is for enabling improved fast travel in Skyward Sword HD — by scanning the amiibo, you can travel straight to the sky without needing to use a Bird Statue.

The amiibo also has an exclusive reward in Tears of the Kingdom that will be very nostaglic if you're a fan of Skyward Sword. If you get lucky while scanning it in, you could receive the Goddess fabric to customize your paraglider. This is a direct recreation of the design of the Sailcloth from Skyward Sword, so you can feel as though you're back in Skyloft while you paraglide around Hyrule.

Part of the Super Smash Bros. amiibo series, the Ganondorf figure uses the Demon King's design from Twilight Princess, and can be scanned in both Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom for exclusive rewards. In Breath of the Wild, you have the chance to obtain the Sword of the Six Sages — the weapon that Ganon stole from the sages at his failed execution before the events of Twilight Princess.

The weapon can be received in Tears of the Kingdom too, though it's under the name of the Dusk Claymore instead. You can also scan the amiibo to obtain the Demon King fabric, which you can use to customize your paraglider. You need to be careful when scanning Ganondorf in both games, though, as he can sometimes drop bomb barrels that may explode when they hit the ground.

Alongside having an adorable design of Young Link with the Goron Mask, the Majora's Mask amiibo offers some of the most fruitful rewards when you scan it into your games. Use it in Breath of the Wild, and you have the chance to receive the Fierce Deity Mask, the Fierce Deity Armor, and the Fierce Deity Boots — have a little patience, and you can wear the whole set.

The armor set is also available as a reward in Tears of the Kingdom (so you don't need to go traipsing down in the Depths to find where the pieces are sold) and there's an additional prize too. If you're lucky, you'll receive the Majora's Mask fabric, allowing you to change your paraglider to look exactly like the iconic mask itself.

The launch of Tears of the Kingdom also brought a brand-new Link amiibo. In this figure, he dons his Champion's Leathers, which is the enhanced version of the original Champion's Tunic, and shows off his Zonai arm.

When you scan this figure into Tears of the Kingdom, you'll receive a mixture of mushrooms (a Hearty Truffle if you're lucky) but the real prize is the corresponding paraglider fabric. You have the chance to receive the Champion's Leathers fabric, which looks exactly like Link's new outfit.

The Champions from Breath of the Wild are available in a four-in-one set — in one box, you'll get Urbosa, Champion of the Gerudo; Revali, Champion of the Rito; Mipha, Champion of the Zora; and Daruk, Champion of the Gorons. Each Champion has been positioned into their iconic pose.

When you scan any of these amiibos into Breath of the Wild, they might drop the Champion's corresponding Divine Helm. You can obtain these Divine Helms in Tears of the Kingdom when you scan them as well, but you could also receive a paraglider fabric with a design representing the respective Champion.

FAQ

How Do You Use Amiibos?

On a Nintendo Switch, you scan amiibos by holding them over the right control stick. Activating the amiibo scanner varies game by game — in Breath of the Wild, it's a function on the Sheikah Slate, and in Tears of the Kingdom, it's one of Link's arm abilities.

Do The Legend Of Zelda Amiibos Work In Animal Crossing?

Previously, you could scan Wolf Link and other amiibo with corresponding villagers into Animal Crossing: New Leaf and have them live in your town as a villager, but, unfortunately, this was not carried over into New Horizons.

What Games Do The Legend Of Zelda Amiibos Work On?

The Legend of Zelda amiibos have the most functionality with Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, but you can also use them in Hyrule Warriors, Link's Awakening, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Twilight Princess HD, and Animal Crossing: New Leaf.
