According to Microsoft’s Larry “Major Nelson” Hryb via Twitter, Yacht Club Game’s Game of the Year Nominee/Winner Shovel Knight will be coming to the Xbox One the week of April 27th. While the specific release date was not given, considering the Xbox Marketplace updates on Wednesday, you could expect it to be around that time.
Originally released on PC, Wii U and 3DS, the game was later ported to the Sony consoles with an additional God of War boss battle. The Xbox One version will also receive some new content in the form of Battletoads who will serve as additional playable characters in a future update to the game.
