Super Mario Odyssey amiibo-locked content doesn’t need amiibo

Super Mario Odyssey amiibo-locked content will not actually require amiibo to access, Nintendo has recently confirmed.

While several amiibo will make it considerably easier to unlock outfits that provide assorted powers and assistance, the game’s website confirms that “[all] outfits can be unlocked in-game without amiibo.”

As examples, the new Mario Wedding amiibo will unlock temporary invincibility, the Peach Wedding amiibo will unlock a life-up heart and the Bowser Wedding amiibo will reveal the location of regional coins.

Existing amiibo figurines will “unlock exclusive outfits for Mario, while others give in-game help,” according to Nintendo’s site.

It’s unclear how those without the amiibo will access to special content. We’ll keep you informed as we learn more.

Super Mario Odyssey heads to Nintendo Switch on 27 October.
