Nintendo’s line of Amiibo figures have mostly been relegated to interacting with Nintendo games alone. However, it looks as though Bandai Namco has decided to make one of its latest games Amiibo compatible, and now the company’s pellet-eating mascot is getting in on the action! That’s right: Pac-Man will also unlock features in the upcoming 3DS title!
For the upcoming Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy Plus, the developers have decided to support Amiibo functionality. When you use your Amiibo, you will be able to unlock certain planes and jets to use.
Pac-Man is just the latest compatible Amiibo announced for the title. Previously announced Amiibos that can be used to unlock these planes include Fox McCloud, Captain Falcon, Mario, Donkey Kong, and Bowser. Looking through this list, there is a noticeable absence of Samus, but perhaps that may come at a later date?
Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy Plus will be released on January 29 in Japan and February 10 in North America.
