The 4th Shovel Knight campaign is finally, finally coming out today. I stopped following it after the big delay but I'm excited nonetheless. It's been nearly 3 years since Specter of Torment came out, here's hoping we get something great out of it.

I believe if you don't own Treasure Trove the price jumps from $25 to $40 after this comes out. I only had it on 3DS so I'm gonna rebuy it now methinks

I bought it on switch last week in preparation. Replayed the first few stages of the base game and it's just a very good game

The card game is kinda weird, hopefully it expands as the game goes on.

I haven't played since it was only the original campaign so this is an epic gamers treat

edit: I really can't stop playing showdown though. Shield Knight rules

The charge/spinjump mechanic is so simple but also infinitely satisfying when you're chaining them together. These guys have a really really keen sense of the goomba stomp ; can't imagine what's next now that they're finally done w this game

they looked at everyone doing the shovel knight ducktales pogo hop on every boss and asked themselves how to make the game focus on that even more

Yeah i think i’ve mainly won by luck.

Not sure about the short levels. Feels like everything’s a puzzle.

Lol yeah I just got rolled 5 times in a row before coming here to post this. She doesn't even have special cards or boss powers like Black Knight I think her AI is just tuned really hard . The "win in 1 turn" puzzles you can do in the tavern are also very difficult

edit: I love this game btw. When I'm done should I do Spectre Knight or Plague Knight next,?

plague knight is what really made me fall in love with the game but a lot of people think hes too wild

Plague is pretty polarizing but if it clicks you'll have a blast. They're all incredibly good.
