Castle Crashers gets Kinged

castlecrashers.jpgWhile January 21st will see the release of The Maw, Twisted Pixel's anticipated 3D adventure recently noted in the Offworld Guide to the IGF, tomorrow's Xbox Live Arcade update will include new downloadable content for The Behemoth's retro-inspired beat em up Castle Crashers.

The so called 'King Pack' is set to add two new playable characters, the 'Open Faced Grey Knight' and the King himself, as well as a new healing spell via the King, three new weapons and Pelter, a new animal orb sidekick, all of which, now that the game has been properly patched and fixed issues with its online play, is as good a reason as any to discover why the game landed on our Offworld 20 best 2008 games list.

After waiting for so long for the game to be playable it should be free!

It's almost free, only 160 points.
