The Splatoon 2 Inkling Squid amiibo and all the Octoling amiibo faintly glow in their ink color and/or hair. Tap an amiibo while playing compatible Nintendo Switch, Nintendo 3DS or Wii U software and you’ll uncover surprising new features! In Splatoon, the Inkopolis Plaza out of bounds glitch reveals that the back of the amiibo box at the southeastern corner does have a texture and looks like the back of real amiibo packaging, except the words are written in Inkling. The protagonist of the Splatoon™ 2: Octo Expansion DLC is a young Octarian Octoling, known as Agent 8.

It can be purchased individually or in a pack of three with the Inkling Boy 2 and Inkling Squid 2 amiibo in North America.

but the Japanese Nintendo page did show the spy gear and octoling boy wearing the male agent 8 suit and the octoling girl wearing the agent 8 female clothing. This includes the original amiibo released with the Wii U original Splatoon, as well as the shinier, newer amiibo released alongside Splatoon 2. To celebrate the new DLC, the three new amiibo are all Octoling-inspired including a Octoling boy, Octoling girl and an Octoling octopus. The Inkling has slightly dark skin (the fifth skin tone in Splatoon 3) with neon yellow hair (with a "Megalobraid" hairstyle), yellow irises with an orange ring around them, and classic shorts (like the default legwear in the original Splatoon).

It was released as a three-pack along with the Octoling Boy and Octoling Octopus, as well as separately. The Switch version of Bayonetta 2 is compatible with amiibo, where the Splatoon and Splatoon 2 series amiibo can be used to gain some items. amiibo are figurines produced by Nintendo that are equipped with Near-Field Communication (NFC) technology and can be used in a variety of Nintendo Switch, Wii U and Nintendo 3DS games, including the Splatoon series.

The original Inkling Boy amiibo is a light-skinned Inkling (the third from the left skin tone in Splatoon 2) with dark blue hair and eyes. It can be purchased individually or in a pack of three with the Inkling (Yellow) and Smallfry amiibo. Inkling (Yellow) has plain yellow eyes (Row 1, Column 3), instead of having the one with an orange ring around it (Row 3, Column 4), the Splatoon 2 Inkling Girl has the eye color used on Octoling (Blue) (Row 3, Column 5), instead of her pink eyes (Row 1, Column 6), and the Splatoon 1 Inkling girl has red eyes (Row 1, Column 5) instead of her Orange eyes (Row 1, Column 4).

For the original Inkling Girl amiibo the shirt and shoes glow, while the Inkling Boy amiibo has its white shirt glow. Interestingly, Nintendo had previously announced a release date of November 9 for the 3-Pack in Japan and Europe, so the US will have to wait just a bit longer for these figures.
