Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove

In Shovel of Hope, play as Shovel Knight, wielder of the Shovel Blade, on a quest to find his lost beloved and face the Order of No Quarter. Treasure Trove also includes campaigns starring Plague Knight, Specter Knight, and King Knight, each with its own story. Run, jump, fight enemies, uncover secrets, and collect treasure through side-scrolling levels and boss encounters. Shovel Knight can bounce on foes with his shovel and use relics; Plague Knight builds custom bomb loadouts, Specter Knight dashes and climbs walls, and King Knight shoulder-bashes through obstacles. The four campaigns offer distinct character abilities and progression, with riches spent on armor and weapon upgrades. The collection also includes local four-player Showdown, challenge modes, New Game+, a cooperative Shovel of Hope campaign, and Body Swap mode.

A shovel-wielding knight searches for his lost beloved through platforming stages, joined by three knight campaigns and local battles.
