Introducing Custom Knight!
The epic tale of Shovel Knight and his success both in-game and with fans is truly a story for the ages. Since its debut in 2014, Shovel Knight and all his counterparts have found special places in the hearts of fans. Now, more than five years, two expansions, and a dozen platform ports later, Shovel Knight Gold Edition Amiibo is available for pre-order. It’s exactly what you are imagining: a Golden Shovel Knight, but it’s obviously not just for show. Like any great Amiibo, this gives players extras for their game.
- Custom Knight – A crazy fun way to play Shovel of Hope! Level up by collecting gold and unlock new moves, costumes, and more!
- Co-op challenge stages in Shovel of Hope
- Baron Set costume for Shovel Knight Showdown
- Fairy of Shovelry in any Shovel Knight game
This is what Yacht Club Games is promising from the Gold Edition Amiibo. The Custom Knight is a knight whose palette, sound effect, costume, and gesture you can customize. Completing levels unlock more options.
Do not forget, the Shovel Knight game is far from complete. The new expansion King of Cards is coming out soon and along with the multiplayer mode Shovel Knight Showdown. Shovel Knight Showdown will pit up to 4 knights against each other to compete for gems. The Gold Edition Amiibo will come out in December along with the Treasure Trove Amiibo pack and the King of Cards/Showdown update. You can pre-order your Amiibo at Best Buy or Gamestop.
