Saber Interactive and developer Twirlbound has dropped a new trailer for The Knightling, and reminded us it’s coming on August 28th.
The new gameplay trailer was released during the Galaxies Gaming Showcase, and shows an “exciting mix of exploration, questing, combat and platforming that awaits”. Check it out, below.
We previewed The Knightling back in February, and Lyle said: “The quests even in the demo of this platforming delight are impressively varied. I started off by helping a farmer track down the beast that was disturbing the cattle, which involved searching barns for clues and setting a trap for the culprit. Then I found myself in charge of trying to fix the waterways of the city, and that led to some sewer platforming complete with timed platforms and arrow traps. It’s hard to get bored when you’re constantly doing something new, so hopefully this continues when the game releases In full.
The Knightling has quickly snuck onto my personal most anticipated list after playing through the demo, thanks to its sensational locomotion, and varied missions. If you’re a fan of mascot platformers of old then this is one Steam Next Fest demo you won’t want to miss, I just hope we don’t have to wait too much longer to rescue Sir Lionstone in the full game.”
When Clesseia’s legendary guardian, Sir Lionstone, mysteriously disappears, it’s up to his plucky squire to take up his magic shield, journey across the realm’s many regions, and become the hero the people need. In today’s new trailer, you’ll see just how quickly and capably your shield will serve you in combat, movement, exploration and more.
Unlock the extraordinary abilities of Sir Lionstone’s trusty bulwark to save the day. Block, bash and parry foes in action-packed battles against mighty monsters and bandits, then jump, slide, dash and glide across the land to discover new locations and master towering platforming challenges.
The Knightling is coming to PC, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox Series S|X on August 25th.
