Shovel Knight x Arby's Annoucement Trailer
- Thread starter RockmanBN
- Start date
Not too long ago their kids meal tie-in was Jetpack Joyride, which is, what, 10 years old at this point? More?
Something as recent and relevant as Shovel Knight is a real coup for them.

It's not that Arby's is terrible per se, it's that I could make something better at home in, no hyberbole, less than a minute
If anyone happens to like Arby's I'd recommend grabbing these. It's the sort of quickly forgotten merchandising that winds up being really rare later on because no one saved it, moreso because Shovel Knight barely got any merch so when the nostalgia cycle hits for it 'did you know there were Arby's toys' will come up.
What's really strange is like...5 or 6 months ago I was at an Arby's drive-thru and saw Shovel Knight signage laying on the ground. An employee looked like they were in the process of swapping out the old promotion signage and I thought, "Wow. They're actually doing a Shovel Knight kid's meal. Awesome!" But the sign never went up and I didn't see it again.
Weird.
Weird.
I never knew Shovel Knight was so huge tbh. Deserves it though, excellent, excellent game and character.
Their original roast beef & chicken sandwiches & their curly fries taste great!
How Arby’s Delivery be
No hate towards Arby’s just making some fun! Lol everybody follow us on social media!youtu.be
"we got the meats!" 🤣
low key want these dlc, no chance for Australia though lol
yes, by buying basic roast beef and putting it between two slices of bread
i dunno what the fuck they do to make their roast beef have such a strange texture
uncanny roast beef
now arbys will quote this and own me on twidder
If you like some bread and meat with your mayonnaise, by all means. Once ate there and the sauce took over the whole wrapper
Nah, the game has already had three additional campaigns plus some other content and there's spin-off titles on the way.
I'd much rather Yacht Club work on something completely fresh.
There will likely be a Shovel Knight 2 someday, but it doesn't need to be right now.
Yacht Club has become big enough to even do publishing for other devs, case in point with the recent release of Cyber Shadow and prior to that The Azure Striker Gunvolt double pack.
I think in time they'll make another game.

Patch notes:
• Added support for Arby's. We have the meats!

Keep in mind the add-on campaigns were stretch goal targets for the initial crowdfunding campaign. While they did go above and beyond. It's just they are ultimately still part of the original package as a whole and not 4 individual games.
Also it's not like it's release was recent either, the original campaign was 2014, nearly 7 years ago, and one of the spin-offs aren't even developed by Yacht Club, the other one is a co-developed is sorta positioned as a sequel kinda.
Even if we consider the last expansion back in 2019. It has been 2 years since Yacht Club has actively worked on a project, outside of some unannounced thing they may or may not be working on. As of this point in time, basically Shovel Knight Dig may not be called Shovel Knight 2, it might as well be based on it's gameplay and continuing the humor and story of the previous title(s).

Thanks to CMM.
Soooooooowt me get this straight... the kids toys have a code on them, which unlocks DLC that reskins the game to have arbys shit on it?
alright alright alright alright apright alright alright
Im guessing @nihilist arbys is a popular parody account. Arbys decided to help them out bc it provided them with enough free advertising. Smthng like that?

Let me take a crack at this one...

Good lord lol.
I love shovel knight but this is pretty tacky.
Thats pretty cool, hehe :) First thing i thought of was All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros, a game where some extra silliness is added (both being 2d platforming games, although Shovel Night x Arby's is has more silliness than this though, hehe.
It's weird but YCG has always been super adamant since the days of the Kickstarter that they literally want to stick shovel Knight everywhere. The only unique thing is that Arby's asked them to reciprocate here.
Really? It's always felt like there's been quite a lot of merch, especially for an indie title.
There's amiibo and the First For Figures statue that I know of. I assume there's clothing, but I'm not aware of action figures or assorted toys otherwise. Like, Cuphead got plushies, mini figures, Pop Vinyls, collectors Vinyl, and more.
That's the funniest thing – why not replace the health-restoring apples and roast chickens from the normal game with Arby's food too? Clearly these items are bad for a hero's health. :p
Ooo was not aware of the plush!
i like arbys
I ate lunch at Arby's on the day Russi Taylor died.
I was SO hungry... and it was so delicious.
RIP Original Sherri and Terri... you are missed.

Not a huge fan of this kind of stuff (my immersion!), but I can't blame em for trying to cash in.
