Shovel Knight

Yacht Club Games has shown off the latest roster inclusion for its Shovel Knight Showdown character highlight series. We have a video featuring Tinker Knight below.

Shovel Knight has been on just about every platform you can imagine. That includes Switch, a system that Nintendo came out with long after the game’s release. Despite that, it’s been doing pretty well on the platform.

During an interview with Destructoid, Yacht Club Games’ Sean Velasco and David D’Angelo mentioned that Switch accounts for “25% of total sales on all platforms,” which the team feels is “wild”. Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove is said to be selling “decently” on all platforms overall.

Yacht Club Games has finally set a release date for all of the upcoming Shovel Knight products. Shovel Knight: King of Cards, Shovel Knight Showdown, the physical version of Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove for Switch, the new amiibo 3-pack, and Gold Edition amiibo all launch on December 10.

Yacht Club wrote on its website today:

Yacht Club Games announced today that they reached a major milestone: development of both Shovel Knight: King of Cards and Shovel Knight Showdown is now complete. This means that development on everything that was announced in the initial Kickstarter campaign for Shovel Knight is now finished, and Yacht Club Games can move on to other projects.

Both Shovel Knight: King of Cards and Shovel Knight Showdown are planned for a release on Nintendo Switch in December.

Yacht Club Games has officially announced the Shovel Knight Gold Edition amiibo. Like everything else Shovel Knight-related, it is planned for December.

Here’s what you can expect from the amiibo:

Update (9/5): Best Buy has now opened pre-orders here.


Original (9/4): GameStop has added in an online listing for the brand new gold Shovel Knight amiibo. Thanks to that, we finally have a look at the figure. See the first image of it above.

You can pre-order the gold Shovel Knight amiibo on GameStop’s website here.

Rumblings of a new gold Shovel Knight amiibo date back to last year. However, Yacht Club Games has yet to say anything about such a figure, and it seemed unlikely to happen at this point. Yet within the past couple of days, fans have noticed that the mystery amiibo has been available to pre-order at GameStop.

The gold Shovel Knight amiibo actually isn’t present on GameStop’s website (at least currently). Having said that, there are numerous reports of consumers being able to reserve it in store. It is officially listed as “Gold Shovel Knight for Switch” and costs $15.99.

There’s still no word on when it could release, and Yacht Club Games still hasn’t made an official announcement. We know that the Shovel Knight series has a new 3-pack dropping in December, but the only news we’ve had about this particular amiibo comes from retailers. Hopefully we’ll have a better understanding about what’s planned soon.
