What Is Amiibo?
For the unacquainted, Amiibo is a toys-to-life platform by Nintendo. It consists of a wireless communications and storage protocol that connects these figurines to Nintendo’s video game consoles.
Amiibo toys use near field communication (NFC) to interact with supported video game software, thus allowing data to be transferred in and out of games and across multiple platforms.
Monster Hunter Stories 2 Amiibo Unlocks
Since Capcom has put Amiibo unlocks in MH Stories 2, some of the stuff in the game is locked behind it. Each Amiibo unlocks a different special layered armor set in the game.
There are three Amiibo for Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin

But the following Amiibo for Monster Hunter Rise also works on MH Stories 2.
- Magnamalo
- Palamute
- Palico
So it makes up for a total of 6 Monster Hunter Stories 2 Amiibo unlocks.
