Additionally, it was also revealed that, probably not to anyone’s surprise, Splatoon 2 will feature some form of amiibo functionality. Switch owners in Europe have gotten notices from Nintendo that includes the mention of the upcoming game being compatible with amiibo, which NintenDaan points out in the following tweet. However, only time will tell which amiibo will do what when used with Splatoon 2 when it eventually releases.
