Features in Shovel Knight: Shovel of Hope:

Custom Knight: The main feature of the Shovel Knight amiibo is Custom Knight. Custom Knight is a customizable version of Shovel Knight that levels up by collecting Gold. Each level unlocks more health and magic, relics, charge attacks, abilities, and cosmetics. Custom Knight data is saved to the amiibo.

Co-op Mode: Co-op Mode is available on all platforms and is also compatible with Custom Knight although for both players to use Custom Knight requires the use of two different amiibo.

Features in Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove

Challenges: Scanning the amiibo at the challenge screen unlocks new challenges for Challenge Mode. Unlike with the other amiibo usage this only needs to be scanned once to permanently unlock the challenges. The 3DS version unlocks 5 new challenges centered around Custom Knight, but the Wii U and Switch versions have the 5 regular custom knight challenges, as well as 5 additional Co-op challenges.

Madame Meeber: a fairy-godmother themed character for the amiibo, who is capable of summoning a Fairy Companion for the player after scanning the Shovel Knight themed amiibos. The fairy available through the Shovel Knight amiibo is the Fairy of Shovelry, designed around Shovel Knight himself, and is available in all campaigns.
