The mystery behind The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD amiibo only gets more mysterious as fans have found Amazon listings that have possibly leaked what exactly the amiibo does in the upcoming remaster of the Zelda franchise.

However, there’s a new leak in the pages of Famitsu magazine that delves deeper into what the amiibo will do in Twilight Princess HD.

According to Famitsu, via Nintendo Everything, the Wolf Link amiibo will allow you to play “Thorough Battle: Trial of the Beast.” This is more than likely the extra dungeon that will come with the purchase of the Wolf Link amiibo for Twilight Princess HD.

But if you clear this dungeon while owning the “Giant Wallet,” you’ll earn the “Bottomless Wallet,” which lets you hold up to 9,999 Rupees -- compared to Giant Wallet’s maximum of 1,000. The leak from Famitsu also mentioned Link’s health inside normal dungeons can be recovered by the amount of hearts you preserved in the Wolf Link amiibo exclusive dungeon.

When we asked Nintendo about the Amazon listing we were met with a “Nintendo has nothing to announce at this time” regarding the function of the Wolf Link amiibo.

The Wolf Link amiibo is not the only amiibo that can work with Twilight Princess HD. The other Legend of Zelda amiibo from the Super Smash Bros. series can also work and unlock new features according to Famitsu. Players can only tap and gain the extra effects from the amiibo once per day and the magazine details what each amiibo can do.

Link and Toon Link will fully replenish arrows, Zelda and Sheik completely restore hearts and Ganondorf will have you receive twice as much damage from enemies -- which doesn’t seem like a good idea.

The Wolf Link amiibo is also able to record your journey from Twilight Princess HD and carry over to Zelda Wii U, which was already revealed when the remake was announced.

There are more details from Famitsu that were kept vague by the leakers so stay tuned when those details are revealed.
