1 min read
Summary
The Knightling is a new open-world platformer due for release on 28 August 2022, in which players assume the role of a novice knight who must search for their missing mentor, Sir Lionstone, in the realm of Clesseia.
The protagonist makes use of a circular shield for numerous activities, including sliding down hills, gliding, and parrying, challenging the design of many video games that render shields largely unnecessary.
The game’s developers, Twirlbound, and publisher, Saber Interactive, have released a new trailer and expanded the game’s demo to include the Cornered Bosk area.
The Steam page suggests that players can upgrade their shields and weaponry.
