Nintendo held a Nintendo Direct today and among all of the new game announcements is a new Amiibo!  And praise the sun, it is Solaire, a fan favorite character from Dark Souls.  While I don’t want to spoil anything from the game but Solaire is one of the most interesting and entertaining characters from Dark Souls and a must have for fans of the series so this is exciting news.  Here is a look at the new Amiibo:

If you’re interested in getting Solaire, keep in mind that he is a Game Stop exclusive in the US.  Fortunately, Solaire is up for pre-order on Game Stop’s website and he will be released in May so we don’t have to wait too long for this figure’s release.  The early pictures of this Amiibo look fantastic and while the pose may look silly if you don’t know Dark Souls, if you’ve played it then you’ll definitely appreciate Solaire.  Hopefully the actual figure has such a high quality paint application and details.

I’m really excited to get this Amiibo and will be preordering this one for sure.  What do you think of the new Solaire Amiibo?  Let us know in the comments below!
