It's all been quiet on the Castle Crashers front of late, but this adorably violent XBLA title has started to make some noise by way of a new blog. The Behemoth's devblog is aiming to update weekly with the freshest Castle Crashers news and build up even more hype for this anticipated title -- hey, it worked for Smash Bros.
The latest post offers up something quite astounding -- in addition to the four playable knights that we have seen thus far, Castle Crashers will feature 22 unlockable characters. The devblog has a chart in its latest post which will be updated to show off the new characters over the coming weeks. They really ARE taking a page from Smash Bros.
Well, I'm sold, because I'm gullible like that. I was already waiting for this one but now I think I'll become a drone of the system and watch this blog like a hawk. I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS GAME I HAVE DECIDED! Seriously though, I'm glad this title is coming back up again, I sometimes need reminding that XBLA has some good looking stuff on the horizon, amidst all the things that make Topher want to kill himself.

i'm pretty interested. I just turned on my 360 and started playing in almost a week so we shall see...
Just give us the game.
where the "white" characters would come in on horseback and slaughter the "black" ones?
(as some black woman claimed)
i'm quite sure it was RE5. Granted it got little to no attention and it should've been like so.
You don't have to play SSE to unlock characters...
I didn't even know it would have multiple characters, but now that I know it does I'm positive he will be in it. If not I will post a video of myself making out with my dog.
I jest, I want this game bad enough to strangle a hobo.
Of course it could get more awesome.
It could be by being out already.
I'm frothing mad at this title, and Ikaruga, and SSFIITHDR, and Bionic Commando Rearmed... Matter of fact, my most anticipated titles so far are XBLA ones....
