Shovel Knight PlayStation release to include God of War’s Kratos

MCV Staff 8th December 2014 Business News

Shovel Knight is heading to PlayStation platforms, and Kratos is apparently crashing the party.

The Kickstarter success was on display at Sony’s PlayStation Experience event over the weekend, with a new trailer confirming the game will release on PS3, PS4 and PS Vita.

The trailer also teases an appearance of Kratos – though in what capacity the God of War protagonist is involved (playable character, boss battle, shop owner, etc.) wasn’t made clear.

Shovel Knight is currently out on 3DS, Wii U, PC, Mac and Linux as well. The game recently surpassed the 300,000 sales mark across all available platforms, and also received the award for Best Indie Game at The Game Awards this past Friday.

Here’s a look at the trailer:
