Surprising many, Inti Creates has announced at Anime Expo 17,  that in the next update for Blaster Master Zero, indie darlings Shantae and Shovel Knight will be joining the game and the best news, for a limited time, they will be free to get. Check out the announcement trailer below.

If you wish to add either of these characters to the game, you will have the chance as Shantae will be free to download from July 6 to July 19, whereas those keen for the shoveler of truth can acquire him from August 3 to August 16. Once the free download period has passed for the characters, they will be purchasable $2US, a local price has not been confirmed yet.

A statement from the developers was also released, though now one has to wonder what is coming next.

We are so incredibly excited to have these superstars of the indie game world in Blaster Master Zero, and we hope you thoroughly enjoy them! Stay tuned for more Blaster Master Zero info in the coming weeks and months because, rest assured, we are by no means done with this game!

If the trailer did not sell you on their addition, here are some screens showing off both Shantae and Shovel Knight in action.

So, I have been gaming since controllers only had two buttons and because I wanted to, I started my own site. Now of course, you can find me writing for Vooks as well
