Serving as an homage to classic NES platformers, it stars the titular Shovel Knight in his adventures to the Tower of Fate to save Shield Knight from a cursed amulet, and defeat the Order of No Quarter in the process. The game has expanded to include other playable characters, and even has its own amiibo collection of the four different playable characters. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate This page documents information about a future release. All information in this article must be verifiable, and adhere to SmashWiki's new game procedure. Potentially contentious information should be discussed on the talk page before being added. Assist Trophy Shovel Knight: Shovel Knight, the star of the game, appears as an Assist Trophy. He uses his shovel to dig the ground, sometimes pulling up items, and also hops around the stage on his shovel. Trivia Shovel Knight is the second indie franchise to be represented in Smash, following BIT.TRIP. Shovel Knight is the second third-party universe to have an Assist Trophy but not a playable character, the first being Bomberman. Link's down aerial attack, the downward thrust from Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, serves as the inspiration for Shovel Knight's Shovel Drop attack, which they both use in Smash.
