Metroid Dread launched alongside two new Amiibo, including the E.M.M.I. and Samus as she appears in Dread. Amiibo functions as more than just collectible figures that look cool—they also have special functions in-game.
The Metroid series has many Amiibo that all work in Metroid Dread. You can find a list of all Amiibo that are compatible with Metroid Dread and their functions below.
| Amiibo | Function | Series |
| Samus | Receive an extra energy tank. Tap again to restore some health (Once daily). | Metroid Dread |
| E.M.M.I. | Receive a missile plus tank. Tap again to replenish some missiles (Once daily). | Metroid Dread |
| Samus | Tap to restore some health (Once daily). | Super Smash Bros. |
| Zero Suit Samus | Tap to restore some health (Once daily). | Super Smash Bros. |
| Ridley | Tap to replenish some missiles (Once daily). | Super Smash Bros. |
| Dark Samus | Tap to replenish some missiles (Once daily). | Super Smash Bros. |
| Samus Aran | Tap to restore some health (Once daily). | Metroid |
| Metroid | Tap to replenish some missiles (Once daily). | Metroid |
Amiibo has been controversial in the past as sometimes Nintendo locks crucial features behind them. Thankfully it appears that isn't the case in Metroid Dread as they simply boost health and missiles as well as restore a small amount.
