Shovel Knight’s Got A Confirmed Cameo In Yooka-Laylee
A new trailer for Playtonic Games’ Yooka-Laylee premiered today, and shows off all the major characters revealed to date running on game hardware — plus a few unnamed characters we haven’t seen before. And one we have.
Yup, that’s Shovel Knight, making yet another appearance outside of his own game (his fifth, if you’re counting). With no word on a sequel to the platformer that made him famous, it’s good to know he’s finding work out there.
Want more? The game’s most recent demo was playable at EGX, the European Gaming Expo, over the weekend. Sony took it for a spin during their livestream and Playtonic’s Chris Sutherland provides commentary in this playthrough video.
Currently Yooka-Laylee is scheduled for release in March of 2017, barring any other delays. It’ll hit (and fly to, and roll on, and whatever else) Playstation 4, XBox One, Wii U and PC soon.
