Shovel Knight - Wii U update live in EU, 3DS update delayed, NA update on Jan. 8th

Have your Shovel Knight amiibo at the ready? Good! Because the big amiibo Update is now live on European Wii U’s everywhere! Read our Update Guide for more on how to get up-to-date! This newest patch is Version 2.1! Don’t have a Shovel Knight amiibo? If you are in Europe (except for the UK) go to a store right now and get one!

3DS Players: Try as we may, the amiibo update patch hit a small road bump on the way to finalization. We have all the problems fixed and sent on their way, but it will take a little while longer until the 3DS patch can be released. We apologize for this delay, and we’ll be sure to update you the moment it is made available.

UK Players: Sorry for the amiibo release date delay. Latest we know, the figure will be available December 18th. The little guy is trying to make his way out of customs! Once we get official clearance, we’ll shout it to everyone!

North American Players: This update will still be releasing on North American systems in North America by January 8th, 2016 to coincide with the release date of the amiibo. For more info and what to expect, check our big amiibo update.
