BattleBlock Theater Special Unlocks

BlogPost2013CC
We have a couple hidden gems that come with BattleBlock Theater for our loyal fans out there. We first brought the alien over from Alien Hominid HD to Castle Crashers XBLA when the game first launched and now we’re doing another cross over!

Anyone who has the full version of Castle Crashers will be getting a special unlock of a Castle Crashers knight in the full version of BattleBlock Theater. You can bring your Castle Crasher buddy onto the mysterious island run by technologically driven cats.

 

BlogPost2013AHAlso, for the super duper fans who have Alien Hominid HD (our first game!), you’ll be able to unlock the alien in the full version of BattleBlock Theater.

Last, but not least, we have the Can’t Stop Crying Pack which will unlock in the full version of Castle Crashers XBLA when you earn at least one achievement in BattleBlock Theater. In order to unlock the Can’t Stop Crying Pack to get Hatty as a playable character, you must have the must updated XBLA version of Castle Crashers and BattleBlock Theater  and Castle Crashers must be installed on the same Xbox system.

Check out the Can’t Stop Crying Pack for Castle Crashers and special unlocks in BattleBlock Theater in the video below!

For those who don’t have Castle Crashers on XBLA, the game is on sale for 800 Microsoft points until April 4th! Get Castle Crashers today and get ready for BattleBlock Theater tomorrow!

Too late to enter now, but if you’re curious what sorts of hoops they had to jump through and who qualified to enter, you can check out the contest rules here.
