Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Is Compatible With Most Amiibos

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Is Compatible With Most Amiibos

March 26, 2017

When Mario Kart 8 was first released for the Wii U in 2014, you could scan your Amiibo to receive an in-game Mii Driving costume. Each costume was themed around the Amiibo character that unlocked it. Amiibos were relatively new at that time, but just about every Amiibo available unlocked something. Mario Kart 8’s updated Switch port, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe intends to continue that tradition.

Yesterday, Nintendo updated the Amiibo page for the port to show that over 50 Amiibos will be compatible with the game at launch. There are currently more than 20 Mii costumes that will be available at launch if you have the corresponding Amiibo.

Here’s a list of the usable Amiibo categorized into series:
