Shovel Knight Comes to PS4, PS3, and PS Vita in April

The massive Kickstarter success, Shovel Knight is coming to PS4, PS3, and PS Vita on April 21st.

The game is a blend of old-school, 8-bit, side-scrolling platform, with Megaman/Super Mario Bros/Ghouls n’ Ghosts inspirations with a dash of modern design sensibilities thrown in.

In the game you play as the Shovel Knight, a small knight who draws his shovel instead of sword, out on a quest to save his beloved friend, Shield Knight. Traverse the map and fight through hellishly difficult levels to attain power-ups and abilities that will help you on your quest – slaying cannon fodder and terrifying bosses alike!

Shovel Knight first came to Nintendo Wii U and 3DS last year, but after having reached it’s Kickstarter milestone, the game is being ported to PlayStation consoles with a platform exclusive boss, Kratos!
