Being a first-party game for Nintendo, it's no surprise that the latest Star Fox the remake is compatible with amiibos and offers players in-game rewards if they scan them. However, at this time, Star Fox hasn't received any new amiibos to celebrate the release of this game, so you'll only be able to scan a few older ones.
specifically the only amiibo you'll be able to scan in Star Fox are Super Smash Bros. Ultimate from Fox, Wolf and Falco. Since these aren't amiibos designed exclusively for this game, unlocking the reward will be purely cosmetic, but if you already have amiibos, there's no reason not to explore them.
Unlocks all Amiibo
As mentioned, all rewards for scanning these amiibos will be cosmetic. When you scan amiibos, each unlocks a Battle Banner and three Battle Banner emblems. Specifically, you get a Battle Banner featuring this character and three emblems that include a portrait shot, a profile shot, and a footprint of that character.
An overview of each amiibo unlock can be found in the table below:

You can stop wondering if Star Fox needed another remake. This is a near perfect version of one of the best games Nintendo has ever made.
How to scan Amiibos in Star Fox
Scanning amiibos in Star Fox is relatively simple, but it varies a bit depending on the type of controller you're using. To get started, open the amiibo screen found in the top left of the home menu next to settings.
You should see an amiibo icon there, which will take you to a screen where you can scan your amiibo. If you scan anywhere other than this screen, you will not receive rewards.
Once you select it, a screen of how to scan amiibos on your controller will automatically appear, but FYI, here are the places to tap your amiibo depending on your controller:
- For the controller: You tap the base of the amiibo to the top center of the controller.
- Disadvantages of Joy: You tap the base of the amiibo on the surface of the right analog stick on the right Joy-Con.
As long as you did it right you should see the screen change to see which amiibo has been scanned and it will give you a small list of rewards that have been unlocked.
You will have to repeat this process with all three Smash amiibo to unlock all amiibo rewardsbut once you do, you'll be done and rewards can be found on the Battle Banner customization screen. The The Battle Banner customization screen is also located in the upper left corner of the main menu screenwhere you see your name.
