With the release of the Sora amiibo on the horizon, we’ve put together an in-depth amiibo training guide for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate that applies to every fighter in the game.
If you’re looking to raise a powerful amiibo to beat up your friends, we’ve got you covered. Before you start training a character, you’ll need to choose whether to give it Spirits or not. Spirits are character-augmenting equipment pieces that can boost Attack, Defense, and more. With a proper Spirit setup, you can turn an amiibo into a menace. That said, amiibo with Spirits are sometimes too powerful even for human opponents to beat. If you’d rather raise an amiibo that’s more fair to your friends, you can easily opt out of giving it Spirits altogether. Do note that once an amiibo has Spirits, they can’t be removed via natural means.

A little while back, Nintendo staffer Osamu Nagai shared some insight into the making of the logo and boxart for Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
For both the key visual (which would go on to be the boxart) and logo, Nagai thought about the importance of the series’ previous games while also focusing on the individuality of the newest entry. A key point for the logo “was the particles of light that appear when people mourn.” Meanwhile, for the key art, Nagai “used the concept art from development as a base, then combined it with the giant Mechonis Sword and Titan that were in the previous games’ boxarts.”
