After a sizable delay earlier this year that prevented the development team from releasing in March as planned, Yacht Club Games has finally announced that Shovel Knight will be releasing on Wii U and Nintendo 3DS on June 26. The game will be playable at E3 on the Nintendo 3DS console, so we’ll track down the crew for coverage of the game so you can see early hands-on footage of what to expect.

No information was given on a European release date, but the team did mention that they’ve been working with localization and ratings specific to the European release so it should follow in some time. For those who want to play the game on PC, that will be an international release so you won’t have to wait for localization there.

Are you excited about finally taking command of the legendary Shovel Knight?
