Hey there Shovelheads!

Grab your trusty shovel blade and delve into Shovel Knight’s next adventure! Shovel Knight Dig will release on Steam on September 23rd, 2022! (Which is tomorrow! Hooray!!!) If you haven't already, you can add Shovel Knight Dig to your wishlist! It'll notify you when the game is LIVE on Steam!

Shovel Knight Dig's Steam Page: https://steamproxy.net/steamstore/app/1416050/Shovel_Knight_Dig/

We poured our hearts into creating a new style of Shovel Knight gameplay: a fun, quirky, seamless world that ever changes as you furiously dig down - we think it’s quite special, and we hope you do too!

Here's some info about the game:

When Drill Knight and his dastardly digging crew blast apart Shovel Knight’s peaceful campsite and steal his loot, he grabs his trusty Shovel Blade and starts tunneling after them! But as he and Shield Knight soon discover, this adventure goes much deeper than a simple heist…

In true roguelike fashion, Shovel Knight’s path through the adventure is different every time you play! Shovel Knight Dig is packed with thousands of pixel-perfect level chunks, which are procedurally stitched together to create infinite combinations. Leap over danger, slash your foes, and dig your way down to hidden riches. Augment yourself by partaking in peculiar cuisine from the Gastronomole, studying Shovel Blade techniques from Master Argus, or taking your chances with Tom Bola! Back up at camp, spend your hard-earned loot to unlock new relics, armors, items and accessories. Each trip down the well will bring Shovel Knight closer to discovering the secrets lying at the bottom.

Get ready to dig in tomorrow!

Historically, cheats were discovered and documented by brave explorers and shared among the community in whispers. Today, we are ecstatic to reveal the complete Cheat Database for every adventure in the Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove collection! Whether you’re looking to adjust the challenge or add a little extra spice to your next playthrough, try out these new ways to play!

Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove Cheat Database[www.yachtclubgames.com].

A new Shovel Knight update is here to keep your Showdown duels sharp and your Joustus battles jubilant!

But first... have you ever thought about what we think about when making games? Well, think no longer!

[yachtclubgames.com]Just how did King Knight get his wall-bouncing bash attack or his high-flying acrobatic spins!? Drill into this mobility mechanics deep dive as we explore the illustrious inspirations behind our gilded goon!

[yachtclubgames.com]Now that Treasure Trove is complete, we've had a chance to codify some of the level-design rules and practices we've come to value over the years. We hope this article series provides a bit of insight!

We’d like to fill you in on some way cool upcoming changes to Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove. And no, we’re not adding any more campaigns!
First up is Character Gauntlet, an all-new addition to Showdown’s “targets” mode. In this mode, your character will be randomly changed every time you hit a bonus target. It really tests your mastery of all the fighters. It’s supported for cooperative play too, so you can work together with a friend to achieve that elusive high score.

Oh…one more thing. Have you ever wanted to play Joustus with a friend? There’s a new secret mode where you can! If you press up in front of the mirror in King Knight’s room, now you can setup decks, board layouts, and more and play against a friend to your heart’s content.

With these changes and other bug fixes, Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove is forever completed! Thank you everyone for all your support along the way!
