Happy New Year, to all knights everywhere! Today we have incredibly exciting news that we can’t wait to share! That we couldn’t believe we would ever be sharing!

The Shovel Knight amiibo is now available in stores across North America and Europe!

 

Remember, you’ll need to have the latest game update in order to play with amiibo. The latest patch is Version 2.2! Read our Update Guide for more on how to get up-to-date!

US Players: The latest update was made available earlier today on Wii U and 3DS. If you couldn’t download it before, try following the steps in the Update Guide again.

UK Players: The Shovel Knight amiibo has been cleared from customs and should be available at a store near you as of today! Thanks for your patience during those strange times!

All EU Players: The 2.1 update released last month adds amiibo support for Shovel Knight. This update unfortunately introduced a few unexpected problems with the main game. 2.2 fixes these issues and should be rolling out to systems within the next week.

It remains our goal for this amiibo to be easy to find for anyone who is interested. This is not a one-time print or otherwise limited run! If you are unable to pick one up it at your local store or online, then try to sit tight! We’ll be sending more and more to make sure everyone who wants one can find one!
