How to Bypass amiibo Scan Limit

Amiibo Limit
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment has a scan limit of five unique amiibos. Each of these can only be scanned once per day. You will have to wait at least one day after scanning to be eligible for rewards again. You can bypass this limit however, by advancing your Switch 2's System Time.

Change Your Switch 2's Time and Date Settings

Date and Time Settings 1
1. Close the game then head to System Settings by pressing the Options menu on your Home Screen. Scroll down and find the Date and TIme option.
Date and Time Settings 4
2. Make sure Synchronize Clock via Internet is off first, as you cannot change time with the setting on. Note: To avoid potential errors with the Switch 2, you can re-enable this setting after completing your amiibo transactions.
Date and Time Settings 2
3. Advance the clock at least one day from present day or your last advanced day. If you set your day to December 5 and collected rewards on this day, for example, move the clock to December 6, then to December 7 after collecting and so on.
Date and Time Settings 3
4. Boot the game and try scanning for your amiibos again, it should allow for rescanning afterwards. Make sure to collect your past rewards first though before scanning again as they might be lost if not collected!

※ Should the game fail to rescan your amiibo after the time change, try closing the game properly and wait for a few seconds before rescanning.
