Since its debut in 2008, Castle Crashers has had a steady increase of fans and leaderboard numbers on XBLA. We’re excited about our upcoming 3 million leaderboard milestone, which is why we’ve decided to bring back…
With all these millions of people playing Castle Crashers… many have asked for another chance to show up other players and prove that they have the unparalleled skillz, the bestest combos, the most awesome attacks. Finally, we will yet again know:
Who is the best Castle Crashers
