Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury launches on Nintendo Switch next month, and it’ll release alongside new Amiibo figures of Cat Mario and Cat Peach. Those aren’t the only figures it will be compatible with, however. Nintendo has confirmed that the game will also work with the Bowser and Bowser Jr. Amiibo, and they’ll each have a special function.

Nintendo revealed via a press release that the Cat Mario and Cat Peach Amiibo “will offer in-game enhancements” when scanned. Cat Mario will let you transform into the invincible White Cat suit, while Cat Peach will give you a random power-up. The Bowser and Bowser Jr. figures, meanwhile, will “have special activations” in the Bowser’s Fury portion of the package. According to the game’s official website, scanning the Bowser Amiibo makes Fury Bowser appear, and scanning the Bowser Jr. figure unleashes a shockwave attack.
