Castle Crashers Out Today for PSN!

Happy release day everyone. Today we can finally say that Castle Crashers for the PlayStation Network is here! Well technically it comes out at around 2pm PST but that’s good enough. As you read this post we are currently over 1.8 MILLION players who have experienced Castle Crashers! It’s almost as crazy sounding to read as it is to type out. With the imminent release of the game later today we are hoping to shoot past the 2 MILLION players mark very soon and that’s just very exciting and crazy at the same time.

Of course we wouldn’t be alive today if it wasn’t for the continuous support from all of our fans. We meet all of you at various shows, talk to you through emails, forums, comments, and the one thing that always remains the same is you are all very awesome.

Tomorrow we are on a plane to Seattle to attend the Penny-Arcade Expo. This will be our largest booth at PAX ever and we’re bringing everything we possibly can to make the experience great. Castle Crashers Arcade Cabinet running on a PlayStation 3, BattleBlock Theater demo, new merchandise (yes this means a PAX Exclusive T-Shirt among other things), and the list keeps going on. If you are in the area, or even if you’re not, come on by to Booth #3102 and say hello to us and play our games. We hope to see all of you on PSN later tonight attempting to rescue some kidnapped princesses. They’re all tied up on posts and everything, won’t you help them? They need your help!

*Update: I guess our estimated 2pm launch time has now passed. In the words of William Wallace, “Hold the line!

*Update #2: OK, now it’s officially out! YA! Enjoy everyone!

PAX East, Day 1

Hello all! Tierney here, you may have seen me in such roles as “The Orange Princess does Comic-Con ’09” …or, well that is about it. I’m here to update you on team Behemoth U.S.A and our travels so far this week.

Hatty prepares for departure!
Hatty prepares for departure!

Upon our arrival to this freezing, ice city of brick  and bridges, we quickly learned two things: we’re not  in San Diego anymore (burr) and apparently we missed Dunkin’ Donuts global takeover. Seriously, there are two D.D’s per every Bostonian.

With the other half of our beloved Behemoth team as far away as they could possibly be while on the same  planet,  and our biggest booth to date, we have been busy worker bees. But let me just tell you, it has been so worth it, we hope you can come by and check it out! The chicken is as big and bad as he can be, and we have an awesome timeline that illustrates the evolution of the Behemoth. Custom lighting and pods for all of our knights, shirts and other various delights,  plus 4 consoles to play BattleBlock Theater & Castle Crashers make this the happiest place on earth.  For those of you who can’t join us, scope out the pictures of our awesome new booth digs. After the show starts tomorrow, we’ll add a few more pics so you can see the complete completion & fellow Behemoth fans in action.
