It's a game that, for more than a month, will be exclusive to Nintendo Switch, whether it's purchased separately as a standalone title or as part of the Treasure Trove package. This, in turn, will also allow these expansions to be sold separately, and this is how we get to Specter of Torment. The studio then keeps its promise of providing existing players with all the content they already have for free, but newcomers will have to pay piece by piece (on top of everything that's included so far). Starting in March the base game will be called Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove, and each of these expansions will be integrated in a different way, because they're less like expansions now, and more like new games or campaigns that belong in the same world. However, the studio then realised that they couldn't continue to improve on the game without money, so they had to find another business model. Yacht Club Games promised us free expansions, and this is how the DLC Plague of Shadows arrived, along with other updates. It was also the first game developed by Yacht Club Games, and following its initial release it surprised players with its fusion of retro style and modern sensibilities, and how it improved on the past by using the tricks of the present, all the while being respectful. For those of you that aren't aware of its origins, the base game is a side-scrolling 2D action platformer. Specter of Torment is DLC for Shovel Knight and, at the same time, it's not. Only a few physical releases have landed alongside the launch of the Nintendo Switch, but the catalogue starts to look much healthier if you also take into account what the eShop has to offer, with its lineup that includes Shovel Knight.
