Co-Op Release Alert: Castle Crashers

Nicholas "bapenguin" Puleo August 24th, 2008 at 10:51 AM

Last week we had Too Human, a game 10 years in the making. This week we have Castle Crashers, a game that we felt like we wanted for the past 10 years.

Featuring simple yet addictive hack and slash gameplay, 4 player co-op, and tons of characters to choose from; Castle Crashers is an incredibly deep and addictive old school game with a next-gen feel. It hits Xbox Live Arcade this Wednesday for 1200 Microsoft Points.

Too bad I'll be at PAX, I really want to play the hell out of this.

I'm a bit skeptical since I didn't care much for Alien Hominid, I'll see what I feel like after playing the trial.

Other than the art style, I don't think it shares much in common with AH. It's a much looser game, at least the level that was at PAX last year was.
