The Worst Puzzle I've Ever Been Sent

** TODAY'S PUZZLE **
According to its rating on Logic Masters, today's sudoku (Foggy Knight by Die Hard) is an average puzzle with few exceptional features. The truth could not be more different: in our opinion this is one of the most incredible sudoku discoveries ever. The ruleset is incredible and it's a fog of war puzzle with nothing showing. Prepare to have your mind blown!

Play the puzzle at the link below:

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. The grid is covered by fog and correctly placing digits may reveal additional digits. Each digit satisfies only one of the following conditions: a) It is exactly one chess knight's move away from at least one cell containing the same digit; b) It is in its own 3x3 box (3x3 boxes are arranged in normal reading order. So eg 9 in box 9 meets this condition). c) It is the digit 5. There is one exception: the digit in the very centre of the grid satisfies exactly two conditions. No guessing is required or allowed.
