Earlier this year, developers Yacht Club Games hinted at their openness to a cross-buy promotion for their indie smash Shovel Knight, and while it's not the cross-buy promotion we were hoping for, their newly announced deal is definitely something.

Yacht Club Games announced on their Twitter that Shovel Knight will be receiving a cross-platform discount for the European and Australian regions. Users who buy either the 3DS or Wii U version of Shovel Knight will get 33% off the other version.

The promotion has yet to have an official release date, but Yacht Club Games' post lists the promotion to last until the end of 2014. If you live in the European or Australian regions, you should definitely look out for this promotion. Read our review of Shovel Knight to see just how much we loved it.
