Shovel Knight Coming to Xbox One… With Battletoads

March 5, 2015

Not only is the hit indie side-scroller Shovel Knight coming to Microsoft's console, it's going to feature Rare's iconic amphibians.

That's right, Battletoads fans! Yacht Club Games' retro-inspired 2D action-platformer will have exclusive content for Xbox One owners. Much like how the PlayStation 4 version of Shovel Knight will feature God of War protagonist Kratos, the game on Xbox One will include a Battletoads cameo.

The Xbox One version of Shovel Knight will launch this April. Let us know whether or not this exclusive content will have you picking up the game for Microsoft's console in the comments below.
