Today is a big day for the Chainsawesome team. We are releasing Knight Squad 2 to the world.
We thought you may want to take a look at it.
Knight Squad 2
It has new game modes, new weapons, new knights, and an insane amount of gameplay customization.
One neat thing we did with the sequel on Steam is that we allow you to invite all your friends to play with you for FREE. Yes!
Simply tell your friends to get Knight Squad 2 Trials and they'll get to join your lobby : )

Try out Steam Remote Play Together, it's Magic!
Hello Knight Squad players!
Our game has been out for almost 4 years now but we have a bit of a news for you today. Steam has a new feature in Beta called "Remote Play Together". Using the power of streaming, this feature allows you to play Knight Squad with any of your friends online, even if they don't own Knight Squad! It's almost exactly like playing on the couch. You might experience a bit of latency but that depends on many factors such as the strength and stability of your internet connection.
It's a pretty cool feature. It fits perfectly with the spirit of Knight Squad. We have tried it internally and it works fine. Now, we would love if some of you could also try it and leave us some feedback. It's not a Knight Squad feature, it's a Steam feature so we probably won't be able to fix anything, but we like to know where we stand.
If you want to try it out and have a remote party with your friends, here are the steps.
First, you need to opt-in to the Steam Beta Updates. You'll find the drop-down menu to do so in your Steam Settings, under the Account subsection.
Second, you need to also opt-in to a specific branch of Knight Squad. You'll find the drop-down to do so in the Knight Squad Properties, under the Betas Tab.
Now, you are ready to try it, follow these steps to launch a Play Together Party :
- Open Knight Squad
- Open the Steam Overlay (default shortcut is shift+tab)
- Click on the friend you want to invite from your list.
- Select “Remote Play Together.”
- Ensure your friend accepts the invite.
The system will automatically connect everyone. You can also voice chat with them using Steam’s built-in communication features.
Let us know how it works for you!
Have a great day,
Come to Discord!
Hello veteran Knight Squad players, hello new players!
Our game is a little over 3 years old and that comes with a lower player count in low periods. To organize game nights and find other Knight Squad players, we're inviting you to join our Chainsawesome Games Discord
That is the place to be if you want to find online friends to play Knight Squad with.
Cheers,
Update #21 - Sinister, Salmon and the Spiked Shield
Hello friends!
We have a pretty big update for you this week. The long awaited Sinister and Salmon are joining the Knight Squad and the Spiked Shield has been stolen by the trolls and put in the hands of the knights.
Changes
- Added two new unlockable knights: Sinister and Salmon
- Added one new weapon: The Spiked Shield
- Changed the controller manager to fix all remapping issues
- Passwords for online games are now set in the lobby
- Minor bug fixing
Sinister is unlocked by completing the Extermination (7 kills) achievement. Salmon the fishy knight is locked behind a very well known code for all the old school gamers out there. Does the Konami code ring a bell?
Let us know if you have any issues with this update and thank you for playing Knight Squad!
