Shovel Knight Dig finally comes to PlayStation and Xbox this month

Back in 2022, the team at Yacht Club Games announced and released Shovel Knight DIg – 2D side-scrolling dungeon-crawling roguelite platformer. At the time, the game was only available on Steam, Nintendo Switch and Apple Arcade. Finally, Shovel Knight Dig – and all its DLC – is coming to PlayStation as well as Xbox.

Making the announcement, the team at Yacht Club Games wrote “Our fast-paced action-platformer Shovel Knight Dig is tunneling onto Xbox and PlayStation 5 on May 15, 2025. This ultimate edition includes the complete game and all downloadable content.”

Interestingly, the PS5/Xbox launch will coincide with the game’s final major update, bringing with it new bosses, quests, secrets, and game-changing upgrades as part of the Wicked Wishes DLC.

While fans continue to patiently wait for the team’s much-anticipated action-adventure title Mina the Hollower, PlayStation and Xbox players in particular will soon have a whole new experience to keep them busy while waiting for Yacht Club’s next big thing.
