Amiibo collectors can let out a collective sigh of relief, as Nintendo has finally officially confirmed the Sora amiibo.

Revealed during today’s Nintendo Direct, Sora from Kingdom Hearts will get his own amiibo sometime next year. This marks the completion of the Super Smash Bros. amiibo Series, 10 years after it got started with the release of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS in 2014.

Because of Sora’s link to Disney, many amiibo collectors were worried we’d never see a Sora amiibo, but thankfully, Smash amiibo completionists can finally finish their collection.

That’s not the only amiibo news we got today. Zelda and Ganondorf from The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom are coming on November 3, while Noah and Mio from Xenoblade Chronicles 3 are coming on January 19, 2024. The two Zelda characters will release individually, while Noah and Mio will come together as a 2-pack.

Elsewhere in amiibo land, Nintendo is also preparing to release the Splatoon 3 amiibo, including idols Shiver Frye, and Big Man. Those figures are coming on November 17.
