New Splatoon 3 amiibo revealed
July 19: On social media, Nintendo just announced two new Splatoon 3 amiibo sets, due for release in Japan on September 5. No Western release has currently been announced by Nintendo’s Western accounts but will no doubt be forthcoming. The Side Order Set will contain figures of Pearl and Marina, and the Alterna Set is for Callie and Marie.
We actually received some information about the existence of these amiibo in a datamine some time ago, although this didn’t completely confirm their existence.
You can get a better look at the two sets of amiibo below, via the official X post. Both will cost 4400 yen, or around $28 USD, each, and are available for preorder on the Nintendo Japan storefront now:
