List of Compatible Amiibo with Echoes of Wisdom
The “Traversing Hyrule” trailer confirmed that Zelda will be able to wear different outfits in the game, though it only showed three so far: the traditional princess look, the cloak she wears in most preview footage, and a Gerudo outfit. The Amiibos will give Zelda new colors of clothing, which can add some diversity to thevarious clothing options present inEchoes of Wisdom. It’s very likely that after scanning the Amiibos, the color palettes provided will be based on the figure itself. For example, scanning theBreath of the WildPrincess Zelda Amiibo might give players the colors that match her light blue tunic.
SinceEchoes of Wisdomhas Amiibo functionality, some fans might not have the necessary figures to unlock a certain item or their favorite color palette. However, eagle-eyed fans noticed Nintendo had apparently been restocking Amiibos ahead of the game’s release, specifically theWind WakerZelda andLink’s AwakeningLink Amiibos. This new stock of Amiibo is available through retailers like Best Buy and will arrive the same day asEchoes of Wisdom’s launch on Jul 31, 2025.
