During the Nindies showcase this week Shovel Knight: King of Cards was shown off and the game was given an early 2018 release date, but it isn't the only Shovel Knight product coming our way.

A new amiibo triple pack will also be coming out at some point, although the date is currently unknown.

The triple pack contains King Knight, Plague Knight and Specter Knight, joining the existing Shovel Knight amiibo.  These amiibos can be used in-game to unlock new armour, challenges and the ability to summon fairy companions on quests.

An announcement trailer that perfectly captures the amiibo fans feelings towards amiibos can be viewed below.
