Resident Evil is getting its first-ever amiibo figure. Confirmed via Nintendo of America's official announcement and reported by NintendoSoup and Nintendo Everything, the Grace Ashcroft amiibo releases July 30, 2026, alongside a companion Leon S. Kennedy amiibo.
This is a confirmed release with a locked date and in-game function, so here's what's included.
Nintendo of America's official announcement, as reported by NintendoSoup, confirms the following:
Despite Resident Evil's decades-long history and Nintendo's own long-running amiibo line, this marks the franchise's first entry into amiibo functionality. That makes Grace Ashcroft a notable collector milestone independent of Resident Evil Requiem's broader reception.
Launching Grace Ashcroft alongside Leon S. Kennedy, one of Resident Evil's most recognizable characters, gives Nintendo a built-in draw for collectors who might not know the newly introduced Grace but are certain to want Leon.
With a firm release date already confirmed, it's worth deciding on display and protection plans now rather than after launch day sells out initial stock.
For the boxed amiibo figure, EVORETRO's amiibo display case protectors are built specifically for standard amiibo packaging.
For posing Grace and Leon together once opened, EVORETRO's acrylic display risers add tiered shelf presence for a two-figure display.
July 30, 2026.
Cosmetic skins for weapons in Resident Evil Requiem on Switch 2.
Yes, the first ever released for the franchise.
Yes, a Leon S. Kennedy amiibo releases the same day.
Grace Ashcroft marks a genuine first for Resident Evil's collector history, paired with a Leon S. Kennedy release that should broaden its appeal well beyond players familiar with the new character. With a confirmed July 30 date, it's worth planning ahead.
Having a protector and risers ready means both amiibo will be shelf-ready together the moment they launch.
