Not sure the content unlocks have me excited, as they don't compare to the co-op mode you got with the original Shovel Knight Amiibo figure.


Still a pretty cool package for Shovel Knight fans.

I'm happy to see an indie dev get so much extra support, but I'm glad that the perks from the amiibo are limited in this instance. I'm suffering from amiibo burnout and just don't see myself buying many more unless they are my absolute favorites or essential for a key game mode (wolf link/other BOTW figures).

Much like how co-op was a timed exclusive that eventually got released to everyone, I suspect any unlocks here will have other ways to play that content eventually.  But that's just a guess based on a feeling that Yacht Club Games likes to keep customers happy.


Oddly, I wouldn't trust Nintendo to do the same thing.
