Shovel Knight joins Rivals of Aether roster
Though Shovel Knight achieved Assist Trophy status in the upcoming Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, that won't be the only appearance the character will be making in a fighting game this year. The titular character from Yacht Club Games' indie hit will be joining Rivals of Aether as a new roster addition. Rivals of Aether is a Smash-like 2D sprite based party fighting game, where you have to knock other players off a stage, much like the game that it's based on. This marks the second guest character pack for the game, following Ori from Ori and the Blind Forest, who was added last year. You'll be able to play as Shovel Knight when he launches later this fall, for $4.99, on both Steam and Xbox One.
