Similarly, those hoping to play the game on PS3, PS4, and PS Vita will be able to download it on April 25 as well. The expansion will be available as a free add-on for those who have already purchased Shovel Knight.

Specter of Torment lets players take control of the popular Specter Knight. While the campaign stages are largely the same, Specter Knight’s new platforming abilities and attacks do help to put a new spin on things.
