Nintendo has officially detailed the full scope of amiibo integration for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, bringing a host of exclusive in-game features to players on the Nintendo Switch.
As anticipation continues to build for the highly awaited entry in the Metroid Prime series, the recent reveal on Nintendo's official site sheds light on the unique functionality accessible through compatible Metroid Prime 4 amiibo figures. Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, developed by Nintendo, is set to be a landmark release on the Nintendo Switch platform.
Fans of the series have eagerly awaited new information since the game’s re-announcement at a Nintendo Direct, and the latest update focuses on how amiibo will enhance the gameplay experience.
Nintendo’s integration of amiibo continues the company’s tradition of rewarding collectors and dedicated fans with meaningful in-game content. For those using the special Samus & Viola [Metroid Prime 4] amiibo, players can personalize the Vi-O-La motorcycle by changing its color scheme.
Each time the amiibo is tapped, the total distance traveled by Viola becomes viewable.
Additionally, owners can increase Viola’s Boost Energy regeneration rate once per day, providing a useful temporary advantage during gameplay. The Samus [Metroid Prime 4] amiibo introduces further customization and support features.
When riding Viola in the Solvalei region, players can change the background music for a fresh auditory experience.
On top of that, by scanning the Samus amiibo once per day, a protective energy shield can be activated to absorb up to 99 damage.
When deployed, this shield not only offers defensive benefits but also fully restores Samus’s life, potentially proving invaluable during challenging encounters. Meanwhile, the Sylux [Metroid Prime 4] amiibo unlocks exclusive access to post-game content.
After completing the main story, players with the Sylux amiibo can view the full versions of cinematic scenes that are otherwise shown in fragments across the game.
Notably, even without the amiibo, achievement-driven players can unlock these full scenes by achieving a 100 percent scan and item collection rate.
Additionally, each use of the Sylux amiibo plays back a random voiced line from Sylux, further expanding the game’s immersive audio content. Metroid Prime 4: Beyond's amiibo functionality continues Nintendo's commitment to offering collectors and series enthusiasts additional layers of personalization and reward.
The game is scheduled to launch exclusively for Nintendo Switch, with more information available via the official eShop listing and future Nintendo Direct presentations.
As excitement mounts, Metroid fans can look forward to deeper gameplay experiences powered by both innovation and nostalgia.
