Skyrim: Switch Edition will include Amiibo Support

During  Bethesda’s E3 conference, the developers shed some more information for the Switch port of  The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

In a statement by them, the Nintendo Switch version “includes all-new gameplay features like motion controls for combat and lockpicking, outfits and gear from The Legend of Zelda. Take down enemies with the Master Sword, protect yourself with the Hylian Shield or look heroic in the Champion’s Tunic. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim for the Nintendo Switch also includes all official add-ons: Dawnguard, Hearthfire and Dragonborn. Plus tap other compatible amiibo to gain additional loot including those from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild series, 30th Anniversary – The Legend of Zelda series, Super Smash Bros. series, and The Legend of Zelda series.”

So you can use compatible amiibo (say, a Breath of The Wild Link amiibo) and tap it with the console to gain loot, which you can see in the trailer down below
