PAX West: 3 New Shovel Knight Amiibo Coming
You might think that the Amiibo craze has died down, and yet, you couldn’t be more wrong, as Nintendo is still bringing out more and more figurines for various games. But in an interesting twist, a new trio of Amiibo have been confirmed for a game that was not made by Nintendo: Shovel Knight.
Now yes, Shovel Knight has been on both the Wii U and the Nintendo Switch, but it’s still a multiplatform game, yet, Yacht Club Games and Nintendo are back again to make Shovel Knight Amiibo. This time, they’re making them for Plague Knight, Spectre Knight, and King Knight. If that sounds familiar somehow, it’s because these were the main characters of the spinoffs/expansions of Shovel Knight: Plague of Shadows, Spectre of Torment, and the upcoming King of Cards.
They even had a special trailer made for the game…umm…yeah, this was made and done by Game Grumps, who show the “love” of Amiibo in…uh…interesting ways…you’ve been warned.
