If you're willing to forgive and forget the whole "I waited half a year for a God damn patch" thing, then you'll be thrilled to know that The Behemoth is unleashing its first DLC pack for Castle Crashers, the King's Pack.
Costing 160 Microsoft Points and releasing Wednesday, January 14, the King's Pack includes the following:
- Two playable characters -- The King and an Open Faced Gray Knight.
- The King's Heal Spell, which heals everybody in the party.
- Three new weapons, one of which is the Gold Sword.
- A new animal orb named Pelter.
I'm not sure if I'll be getting it myself, at least anytime soon, since I stopped playing CC long before it was patched (the fact that the bug finally did wipe all my data in the end hasn't helped). However, for those encouraged to keep it up, this is sure to be great news.
Perhaps once the Necromancer makes his playable appearance, we can talk.

No chainsaw, though? Or did I miss something previously?...
120 pts sounds reasonably cheap for this.
Yea - this is it I think
"The Maw" comes out next week
I wish they were new cool levels or something. The later levels like the ice one were meh.
I might get this though, since I have some leftover points from when I bought the game.
All this DLC to get you through the winter slump. This is very interesting . . .
Major Nelson said 160... O__o
Other weapons in this pack are going to be the King's Scepter and the Newgrounds Lollipop. New spells include: King's Healing, Gold Knife, Healing Magic, Kingley Jump. (I'm assuming the Open Faced Grey Knight will have the same magic as the regular one). Pelter is the Seal orb. Also, the pricing is set by Microsoft, Behemoth would rather it be free.
It's really easy to say "MS held onto the patch" or "MS sets the prices" but how do we know that is true? Because the Behemoth said that they sent the patch months before it was released, it was true and we all blame MS? I've heard this before about the pricing, too, but then how come Burnout Paradise can make legitimately valuable DLC and have it be free? Are we to believe that MS lets *some* people decide whether their DLC is free, and not others?
sorry. but screw behemoth... i LOVED them before.
but no. sell me a broken game. out comes the bobycott
to all game devs out there, treat us like garbage?. expect the same in return.
zing!
