SHOVEL KNIGHT!

[I Love You]

What's the UK release date of this game?

Waiting to be announced, while the game gets translated for our lovely European cousins:

 

Ah thanks for the info. I'll expect it towards the end of the year then.

Will probably stick with it, but this isn't really blowing me away GoTY like some people are saying.  Still prefer Contra IV as my favorite WayForward.

I agree with your criticisms but this game is not WayForward

[a slime appears]

While you're technically right, Bebpo is fundamentally right. Everyone at Yacht Club Games is from Wayforward and most importantly Sean Valesco*, the ex Design Director of Wayforward, heads up Yacht Club. This is practically as Wayforward as you can get without the official name.

Also, Sean is a genuinely a great person and one of the nicest guys I've ever met in the industry. He and YCG deverses all the kudos they deserve. But I agree. Game is cool and I'm having fun but definitely not a revelation.

* Sean was also a director on Contra IV.
