Nintendo announced on social media that three new Amiibo figures featuring Deep Cut from Splatoon 3 will be released later this year. The pictures of these figures were shared, showcasing Frye, Shiver, and Big Man from Splatoon 3. The response from Splatoon 3 fans towards these Amiibo figures has been positive. Deep Cut, composed of Shiver, Frye, and Big Man, is a group in Splatoon 3 that fulfills the role of an idol group, much like the Squid Sisters and Off the Hook from the previous games. However, in Splatoon 3, they take on the additional role of treasure hunters, using their idol image as a cover for their adventures. The popularity of Deep Cut among fans prompted Nintendo to create these new Amiibo figures.
Nintendo has announced that the Amiibo for Shiver, Frye, and Big Man will be available on November 17. These figures can be purchased individually or as a three-pack, although the pricing details have not been provided yet. It is worth noting that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom game also revealed two new Amiibo of Zelda and Ganondorf, which will be sold during the Holiday 2023 season. In Splatoon 3, players can scan the Deep Cut Amiibo at the Amiibo Box in the Main Square of Splatsville using the Right Joy-Con or a Switch Pro Controller. Scanning these Amiibo will unlock exclusive gear and allow players to have in-game photo shoots with each character.
On Twitter, the reception to the new Deep Cut Amiibo figures has been positive. While some Nintendo fans were happy to hear news about Splatoon 3 Amiibo, others expressed curiosity about the unconfirmed Amiibo releases, such as Sora from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Although a major Amiibo restock is expected in 2023, it remains to be seen what Nintendo's future plans are for Amiibo releases.
As Splatoon 3 approaches its upcoming one-year anniversary, avid fans eagerly await Nintendo's future plans for Splatfests and other exciting in-game events. Regardless, Deep Cut is set to play a significant role in these joyous celebrations.
