Yoshi’s Crafted World: Unlock Every amiibo Costume on Nintendo Switch
Nintendo’s 2019 platforming release, Yoshi’s Crafted World, delivered an enchanting new adventure for Yoshi and friends, bringing its innovative cardboard and paper art style to the Nintendo Switch.
Developed by Good-Feel and published by Nintendo, the game invites players to explore meticulously crafted dioramas while embarking on a quest to restore the Sundream Stone, a mystical artifact crucial to the world’s harmony.
Alongside its creative gameplay and engaging platforming challenges, Yoshi’s Crafted World introduced broad amiibo compatibility, rewarding both collectors and new players with exclusive, in-game costumes that provide Yoshi with protective paper armor.
These wearable costumes, many inspired by iconic Nintendo characters, grant players a gameplay advantage and a charming visual twist reminiscent of classic titles like Capcom’s Ghouls’n Goblins, where armor played a crucial role in character survivability.
How to Use amiibo in Yoshi’s Crafted World
Unlocking these costumes is straightforward.
While navigating the overworld menu, players simply press the '+' button and select the final option on the menu.
By placing any compatible amiibo figure or card on the right Joy-Con’s NFC touchpoint (or on a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller), players immediately receive themed armor for Yoshi, each granting +5 armor to help survive tougher stages.
Comprehensive amiibo Compatibility
Yoshi’s Crafted World distinguishes itself by recognizing every amiibo released to date, including all future additions to Nintendo’s NFC lineup.
This ensures players' existing collections remain valuable while continually welcoming new figures.
