We have the new Trine 5 trailer showing Pontius the Knight below. He’s the protector of the Realm and also the biggest pie lover the land has ever seen, not to mention a frontline hero who is always going head first into battle to protect his friends. As a skilled knight, Pontius can use his sword to fight off enemies, get rid of obstacles, and use it as a platform to help him reach higher areas. Meanwhile, the shield can protect and reflect light, skate across water, and be used as a glider.
