Shovel Knight out on Wii U and Nintendo 3DS Tomorrow, Ya Dig?

June 25, 2014

Nintendo fans have been looking forward to Shovel Knight for Nintendo Wii U and 3DS from developer Yacht Club Games for some time now and the company sent word that the title will be available for download tomorrow.

In the game, you don the helm of Shovel Knight, tasked with defeating the evil Enchantress and rescuing his beloved. You'll face off with The Order of No Quarter on the way, though they seem a lot angrier than arcade rats with no pocket change. Nintendo says Shovel Knight will support Miiverse functionality on Wii U while the 3DS version has the added visual depth of 3D and a Battle Arena mode that utilizes StreetPass.

To get the game, you just need to hop on the Wii U or Nintendo 3DS eShop service and search for it or look for featured placement. We hope to have a review for you soon.
