As I was a huge fan of Shovel Knight, can't wait to play as Plague Knight! :D

I hope that Spectre Knight comes soon. He was my favorite!

Awesome this game is coming to PS4 and Vita. I can't wait to play it!

Well fudge, now I have doubly enough to enjoy from this game, and I still haven`t finished the main storyline! TwT

I got to complete New Game+, and that was tough as nails. @_@

Very much worth it though, the game is just so much fun.

There`s new game plus too..?! Nooo..! orz I have the game on my Wii U and played some, but I haven`t gotten back to it. My sched and backlog is big... TwT

You keep all your gear and upgrades, but enemies do double damage and there's a lot less checkpoints. The final levels are just cruel. T___T

Well, looks like their giving me an incentive to go back to Shovel Knight, which is great since I've been craving more game.

Haha, sounds really tough and frustrating, but really fun.. >: ) Ugh, I need to get back to this game... orz

I believe that King Knight and Specter Knight will be the other two playable bosses. There will also be a gender swap mode.

If I could pick three, it'd be Specter with Treasure and Propeller Knight. Ah well.

Awesome! I loved Shovel Knight. Can't wait for this one.
