Street Fighter 6 amiibo cards are set to be a GameStop exclusive, priced at $39.99 for a collection of 22 character cards. These amiibo cards, alongside Street Fighter 6 amiibo figures, will allow players to save their settings, unlock various features, and have compatibility with the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. Pre-orders for these amiibo have begun, revealing that the cards will only be available through GameStop. Fans wishing to obtain the cards will need to pre-order ahead of the game’s release on the Nintendo Switch 2.
Street Fighter 6 marks the latest entry in the franchise, initially launched on other platforms in 2023 but confirmed as a launch title for the Switch 2 during a recent Nintendo Direct. Additionally, a price increase for the Amiibo line is anticipated with the introduction of the first set designed for the Switch 2. The Street Fighter 6 Amiibo Card Starter Set, now available for pre-order, comprises cards representing the base roster and Year 1 Character Pass roster of the game, including characters like Jamie, Kimberly, and Luke. These characters also have full amiibo figures planned for release.
Players can expect the amiibo and cards to function similarly to previous games, enabling them to save player-specific settings such as preferred outfits and button configurations, while also unlocking features like photo frames and wallpapers for devices. The initial set of characters featured in the Street Fighter 6 amiibo cards includes favorites like Ryu, Chun-Li, and Ken, among others. Although it’s unclear whether Capcom and Nintendo have plans for additional amiibo waves based on further character additions, the Starter Set name suggests that there may be more cards in the future. Given the affordable pricing for the complete card set, it appears likely to attract interest among collectors and fans alike.
