Nintendo Finally Confirms the Zelda Amiibo Fans Have Been Waiting For — Here’s the Release Date
Nintendo has set Sept. 17 as the release date for the The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Mineru’s Construct amiibo, a collector’s item the company first hinted at more than a year back, and a fresh addition to one of its most lucrative franchises. According to Nintendo’s U.S. store page, the figure is scheduled to launch on Sept. 17, 2026. The timing isn’t random—Nintendo dropped the update right on the third anniversary of Tears of the Kingdom, a clear move as it works to maintain Zelda momentum across both Switch and the upcoming Switch 2. Over in Japan, Nintendo’s website confirmed preorders are live on My Nintendo Store, with other shops set to follow once they’ve finished prepping.
