Shovel Knight Showdown and King of Cards finally get release date

Shovel Knight: King of Cards

Step into the gilded boots of King Knight in the biggest and most regal Shovel Knight game of them all! Leap, Shoulder Bash, gather new subjects, and strategize your way through this prequel in your quest to become King of Cards!

Mark the 10th of December on your calendar, Shovel Knight fans, as Yacht Club Games is releasing a hefty amount of Shovel Knight content for you to sink your spade into.

First up we have Shovel Knight: King of Cards, the spin-off 2D platformer that focuses on King Knight which also includes the card game Jaustus.

Next is Shovel Knight Showdown, the local four-player battler. Both of these are the final additions to Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove, and anyone who already owns the Treasure Trove bundle can get both King of Cards and Showdown for free. Alternatively, these can be bought separately (except by players using the Nintendo 3DS or PS Vita, as Showdown will not be available for those platforms).
