Will all the new playable characters get new armor and relics for Shovel of Hope Deluxe?

I'm guessing Specter, Plague, and King will all get their stuff from their respective campaigns back, but I'm curious if all of the other playable characters will get new stuff made for them, or maybe reuse shovel knight's

Halloween!

I did Spectre Knight! I originally carved him but that pumpkin got all gross and moldy. New pumpkin, day before Halloween, decided to paint him on instead.

King Knight is really cool when he’s not being an entitled dickhead.

Replaying King of Cards in the Game+ mode, the time when King Knight taught the running kid how to lie in order to feel better about himself was weirdly wholesome.

Also, he’ll complement your armor in Shovel of Hope if you wear the Ornate Plate. (aka the flashy, useless and weirdly acrobatic golden armor)

Favourite stage from King of Cards?

Since King of Cards has many short stages instead of the longer ones from the other campaigns, which allows for more diverse answers, what is your favourite one to play through? Mine is Shrouded Spires, one of the last stages in the game.

While Shrouded Spires is a Tower of Fate stage, it's relatively easy for Tower of Fate standards. (Warp Wrap Keep is just... ugh.) There are dark areas, which I always like, it has a secret pathway that treats you with a magnificent view of the Tower's stained glass windows while you battle enemies that lurk in the shadows, it has Shield Knight's helmet as an easter egg, it has moving blocks that aren't too hard yet still challenging, it has one of my fav themes from the OG...

Honestly, this level is pretty much perfect imo.

What is your favourite King of Cards stage? (Btw, bosses and Joustus games don't count as stages, but bonus stages do.)

Mole Knight is underrated

He offers you a job before attempting to kill you, and when you defeat him he gets carried away by his loyal mole soldiers, he is peak character design

Which games are considered a "must play" when someone wants more shovel Knight?

After years of postponing I finally got around to finishing shovel knoght...and I loved it! I own shovel knight: treasure trove and just looked in steam that there are 7 other games! What is the difference between treasure trove and shovel of Hope? Since both of them look the same to me

Please let me know which games one should get if they liked the shovel knight experience so that I can wishlist them for the right opportunity to buy

Considering 100%-ing TT

I mistyped that. I'm consider 💯Shovel of Hope. I'm finishing up wtih Lego Starwars TCS and am going to need a new gaming objective. I've beaten all four games stories, SoH, SoT, PoS (lol), KoC. So do I made a new file for each one? Or do I just 100% the existing one. This was such a fun game and I think I'm passionate enough to go for the💯. How does this work? It'll be alil bit though, since I can only tolerate 100%-ing 1 Lego Starwars level a day.

Does anyone have a good resource for all the complete compendiums? This is driving me insane.

This is basically the only thing I have left to do in Dig

This moment saved what would end up becoming a successful deathless run...

34th and final attempt for the last 2 SOH feats I needed, I lost a run in stranded ship just before this but I still had a feeling tonight was the night... Yet I played absolutely braindead in this clip 💀💀

If I buy Shovel Knight for 3DS, am I still going to be able to download the Treasure Trove stuff?

I know the eshop is down but don't the updates still work?

Would YCG ever rerelease the Shovel Knight playing cards?

I'm sad to have missed this! It's really cool when playing card themes have different characters on each suit.

You'll notice for this one, the four Aces are the playable characters in Treasure Trove. Shovel Knight for spades, Specter Knight for hearts, King Knight for diamonds, and Plague Knight for... bombs?

EDIT: Let me add that it's tricky to search for these because King of Cards exists, and it has card decks as a mechanic. :P
