armiibo (Japanese: アミーボ戦士 Amībo Senshi/Amiibo Warriors) is a downloadable 3D combat title released for the Nintendo Switch. The game uses amiibo figures to unlock characters.

The game is sold with amiibos of the 3 primary characters of the game; Captain Falcon, Bowser and Pink Gold Peach.

Gameplay

The game is a three-dimensional action game with both hand-to-hand combat and shooter elements. Similar to Splatoon, each character can hold a standard weapon, a secondary weapon, and a specialty weapon to be used for mass destruction.

There is 4 player local co-op and 12 player online co-op.

In both the Story mode and Free Play the player traverses the World of Armiibo, which is comprised of one map in the vein of Breath of the Wild.

Combat

generally the player will have to fight waves of weak enemies ala Dynasty Warriors or God of War, these waves are patterned with stronger enemies, sub-bosses and structures which will all hinder the player.

Game Modes

Story: Nights in Amiibo

3 lone warriors try and find their way home while breaking free from the grip of a tyrannical god.

Playable Characters

Story Characters

these are characters who appear in the story.

Name	Bio
Captain Falcon	A fearless but mysterious bounty hunter who competes in the F-Zero racing league, Captain Falcon was thrust into the Amiibo World like the others by the mysterious Syllektis in order to do battle with other fighters for their amusement. However, Falcon has other plans...
Bowser	Bowser is the king of the Dark Lands and leader of the Koopa Empire, despite this rather imposing resume he's also an avid fan of go-karting. Like the others he was brought by Syllektis for an entertaining deathmatch but simply wants to go home and race around with his best friend Mario and his paraplegic son Bowser Jr.
Pink Gold Peach	A metallic clone of the Mushroom Kingdom's ruler, Pink Gold Peach was brought by Syllektis as an enforcer due to basically being a golem and following Syllektis' orders. This all changed when PGP was struck by lightning which I guess gave her free will? Regardless of the science PGP has joined with Falcon and Bowser in order to find a way out of this pocket dimension.

Other Amiibos

Name	Bio
Ridley	A deadly and tyrannical space pirate, Ridley has left a path of destruction across the galaxy in his wake. When transported to the World of Amiibo Ridley has been working in the shadows, trying to amass an army of new space pirates to fight Syllektis and take over the World of Amiibo.
Bowser Jr.	The paraplegic son of the koopa king, despite losing the use of his legs in a climactic fight against Koopa Kid Bowser Jr. Is still capable of using his Clown Car to fight.
Shovel Knight	Shovel Knight was cloned by Syllektis to create an army of powerful enforcers, the Spade Corps. He now wanders the World of Amiibo, destroying his clones wherever he can.
Baito	Baito The Arcade Bunny was originally a shopkeeper in the Nintendo Badge Arcade and was brought to the World of Amiibo to sell weaponry to the fighters. Although not much of a combatant himself Baito is still capable of using his Mimic ability to turn his foe's attacks against them.
Wild Guardian	The Guardians, like the Spade Soldiers, were brought in by Syllektis as enforcers, although most were resistant to Syllektis' control none escaped other than the Wild Guardian, the Guardian now roams the land with no goals or morals.
Scratch Kat	A goofy and cartoony cat-like creature who showed up in the world of amiibo...somehow. Syllektis didn't bring him in and he doesn't seem to remember how he showed up so he's just here for the ride I suppose.
