Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment will debut on the Nintendo Switch, trading in the shovel for a scythe to play as the robed Specter Knight. Here are my impressions of playing as the Specter Knight as well as some specifics on what it's like to play the game with its new expansion on the Switch.
Just like Plague Knight from the previous Plague of Shadows expansion, Specter Knight is a new playable boss with his own unique abilities, items, and levels. He wields a scythe capable of quick slashes to take down enemies and, yes, destroy piles of dirt. Jumping in the air towards an enemy will make a red reticle appear over it; tap the attack button midair and Specter Knight will automatically hone in and execute a diving slash attack. As if jumping and slashing through the air wasn't ninja-like enough, Specter Knight can also perform a limited vertical wall-run and do a wall-jump on certain surfaces.
