Nuked Hey there, my fellow tech enthusiasts! Have you heard the news? Shovel Knight is getting a sequel, and it’s venturing into a’new dimension’ of gaming. Developer Yacht Club Games has just announced a new mainline game in the beloved series, hinting at a move to 3D gameplay.
If you’re a fan of the original retro-inspired 2D platformer, you’ll be excited to hear that this new game promises to bring “electrifying action, richer mechanics, and all the timeless charm you expect from a Shovel Knight title.” While details are still scarce and there’s no release window yet, the anticipation is building for what’s to come.
But wait, there’s more! While we wait for the new sequel, Yacht Club Games has plenty of new content to keep us entertained. The studio has announced Shovel Knight: Shovel of Hope DX, the definitive edition of the original game with added features like online multiplayer, stereoscopic 3D, and the ability to play as 20 different characters.
Not only that, but Shovel Knight Dig and Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon are also receiving free DLC this summer. And let’s not forget about Mina the Hollower, an upcoming game from Yacht Club Games that looks to be inspired by classic titles like The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening. With a vague “coming soon” launch date, I’m eagerly awaiting more details on this exciting new release.
