If there wasn’t enough loot for you in Diablo 3 on Switch, then maybe you should get your hands on the Diablo 3 Loot Goblin amiibo.
Available in Australia for $21.95 AUD and exclusive to EB Games the Diablo 3 Loot Goblin amiibo allows you to summon a portal to The Vault. Once per day, those with Diablo 3 on Switch can scan the Loot Goblin amiibo and travel to The Vault; “the realm of the enigmatic and mischievous Treasure Goblins.”
Once you arrive at The Vault, you’ll be able to get your hands on untold wealth and even take on the “Baroness of the Treasure Realm herself, Greed.”
According to EB Games details of the amiibo;
- Every Diablo 3 Switch user receives an “Amiibo Portal Item” – sits in stash/inventory
- When the Amiibo Portal Item is activated, it generates a rainbow portal. A menu appears in bottom right explaining Amiibo functionality.
- This portal indicates that NFC reader is active.
- Treasure Goblin Amiibo – When scanned, Rainbow Portal transforms into golden Greed’s Domain Portal
- This is a realm filled with piles of gold/loot and Treasure Goblins.
Culminates in a boss fight against Greed
- All other Amiibos – can only be used outside town. Rainbow Portal disappears and a Champion Pack appears.
- Each Amiibo function can only occur once per day – so once for the Treasure Goblin, and then once for all other Amiibos.
- This cooldown is not shared with party members – meaning players can share their Amiibo functionality with their friends.
The Loot Goblin amiibo is now available and is your key to immeasurable wealth in Diablo 3.
Diablo 3 is available now. Season 16 has just begun.

Eternal Collection for Nintendo Switch May be Getting its Own Amiibo
By
Tomas Franzese
Diablo III: Eternal Collection may be getting its own Treasure Goblin and Demon amiibo figures if a recent datamine by Reddit user is correct.
We are just days away from the launch of Diablo III: Eternal Collection for Nintendo Switch, but there may still be more to expect from this collaboration between Nintendo and Blizzard. Reddit user JustMaku was able to datamine the game just before launch and took to the Diablo subreddit after they seemed to find information suggesting that Diablo amiibo could be on their way.
Nintendo’s toys-to-life amiibo are still going strong almost four years after the line’s 2014 launch, even when other toys-to-life products like Skylanders, Disney Infinity, and LEGO Dimensions have stopped producing new games or figures. New amiibo are releasing consistently every year and they can be used across multiple games, so they’ve managed to stay relevant. This datamine revealed that Diablo III: Eternal Collection would have amiibo support, and their descriptions within the data suggest Diablo amiibo are on the way.
This is because amiibo use is split into three different categories: Default/Generic amiibo, Treasure Goblin amiibo, and Demon amiibo.
The Default/Generic category seems like it applies to standard Nintendo franchise-themed figures, while the Treasure Goblin and Demon amiibo are new figures. Using a Default/Generic or Treasure Goblin amiibo will open a portal a currently unknown location; this location is unknown because it must be determined by a server.
Meanwhile, the Demon aptly spawns a powerful demon for players to fight on the map. All amiibo also have cooldown times. Default/Generic and Treasure Goblin amiibo can only be used once every 22 hours, while the Demon amiibo can be used every 45 minutes. These amiibo should also work in multiplayer, whether it be local or online. You can read JustMaku’s post below:
«If you don’t know what an amiibo is, it’s a delightful new creation from Nintendo that blends both toy and game alike. If plugged into right games, Amiibos can unlock new modes, characters and features.
Based on datamined information from the Switch version of the game Diablo 3 will support 3 types of Amiibo:
- Default/Generic Amiibo
- Treasure Goblin Amiibo
- Demon Amiibo
The first two will spawn a portal leading to some location (controlled by server so can’t be datamined) while the demon amiibo will spawn a powerful demon on the map.
To prevent abuse, there’s currently a cooldown on each type of the summon:
- 22 hours (1320 minutes) for portals
- 45 minutes for demons.
amiibos can be used in both local and online mode.»
After being leaked on Forbes before its initial announcement in early August, the port was revealed via a funny video featuring Reggie and Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime. The game has been shown off at several events and even a Nintendo Direct since then and will be featured prominently at BlizzCon, which takes place this weekend. While Blizzard has tried to quell fan expectations about what’s going to be announced during their Diablo: What’s Next presentation, amiibo definitely aren’t too farfetched of a possibility.
That being said, it may still be possible that this information just applies to existing amiibo. DualShockers will be sure to let you know when Nintendo and Blizzard finally give details about Diablo III: Eternal Collection’s amiibo support.
Diablo III: Eternal Collection releases for Nintendo Switch on November 2, though the game is also available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

No Mans Sky ps5
No Mans Sky ps5 — a completely new word in space games action adventure on Playstation 5
This is a action survival adventure game in which players have to fly through the endless space, discover new planets, upgrade their ship, weapons, costume and advance further.
Speaking of infinite space, we are not joking, because in No Mans Sky ps5 it is created in a special way that the player will never reach its end.
On the way, unique planets with their inhabitants, ecosystem, flora and fauna are waiting for you.
To explore some planets, you’ll need upgrades from others, making No Man’s Sky potentially one of the biggest hits of 2016.
Classic science fiction, its diversity and unique spirit of adventure come to life in the creation of the studio Hello Games. No Man’s Sky — game , characterized by incredible scope and ambition. Explore an endless universe on the PS5 , discover countless unique planets and meet never-before-seen life forms.
The secret hidden in the center of the galaxy irresistibly beckons to itself, makes you go on a grand journey to find out the true nature of the cosmos. On this path, there will be dangers, hostile creatures and ferocious pirates, and in order to survive, you will have to prepare well — improve your suit, ship and your weapons.
You can fight, trade or simply explore the galaxy. Either way, your decisions and actions will have consequences that will determine how your journey in No Man’s Sky goes.
Includes the following major updates since launch: Foundation, Pathfinder, Atlas Rises, NEXT, The Abyss, Visions, BEYOND Update 2.:no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/62119385/TGoblinArt.0.jpg)
0, Synthesis, Living Ship, Exo Mech, Desolation and Update 3.0, ORIGINS, Next Generation, Companions, Expeditions, Prisms, Guardian and Outcasts.
Set your course in an open universe and explore any of the 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 unique planets. The No Man’s Sky galaxy is created in real time, so every player will definitely have the opportunity to become a pioneer. Space exploration is very smooth, without delays and reloads, even if you descend from orbit to the surface of the planet or jump between star systems.
Choose an activity to your liking — from a desperate space warrior, a bounty hunter or a pirate to a peaceful merchant, miner or explorer. You can play No Man’s Sky as you like, and you are free to change activities at any time. Just remember that all actions have consequences.
All adventures in No Man’s Sky begin at the outer edge of a single unexplored galaxy. Along the way, you will meet countless star systems, planets, life forms and many more things that no one has seen before you.
If you wish, you can share your finds with other players, giving names to your discoveries and putting them on a single Galaxy Map so that they remain permanently assigned to your PSN ID.
Make enemies and make friends by intervening in wars across the galaxy. Take part in daring raids on merchant caravans, storm massive battleships, earn rewards and upgrade your weapons. Just do not forget: helping one always displeases others.
Violence is not the only way to succeed. Look for rare resources and trade with the greatest profit for yourself, and use the proceeds to purchase upgrades and more cargo-carrying ships. This activity is very profitable, but you risk attracting the attention of pirates.
The better the engine of your ship, the further you can go and the faster you get to the target. Updating the suit will protect you more reliably from radiation and a hostile environment. This means that there will be even more exciting discoveries.
The No Mans Sky galaxy is alive and kicking.
