  • Shovel Knight: Battle Mode – Duel with up to 4 players as your favorite heroic or villainous knight! (3DS/Vita not included)

 

 

Yacht Club Games will also be raising the price of Shovel Knight this spring, but all owners of the game on all platforms will automatically get Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove and will continue getting planned free campaigns and features through updates.
