Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove

The Messenger

Shovel Knight’s base game certainly had its challenging moments, but the title only really became tough-as-nails with the DLC, namely the Plague Knight and Specter Knight additions. Both of those DLCs introduced new dynamics of play, including the introduction of range-orientated and faster play. By diversifying Shovel Knight’s solid toolkit, the DLC allowed for unique challenges absent from the main game, driving the game’s potential to ever-evolving heights.
