RTX 2017 – Booth 401

We’re headed back to Austin, Texas for our 5th time exhibiting at Rooster Teeth Expo (RTX)! You’ll be able to find us at RTX 2017 Booth 401 (next to our friends, Supergiant Games) from July 7 to July 9 and we’re going to have lots of new stuff this year.

Arcade

Our custom-built arcade cabinets are returning with us. Come play Pit People, BattleBlock Theater, and Back Off Barbarian! We’ll also have brand new 2-player Pit People arcade cabinets to play!! These arcade cabinets are built by our hands for your hands!!!

All the demos at RTX are free to play as always. <3

Store

We’ll have official merchandise at our Gift Shop, including blind-boxed capsules in our Chonku Chonku machine! For $5, you’ll be able to get a token to place into the machine and it will pop out a capsule with either a keychain or one of the Castle Crashers mini-figurines! (Pins will no longer be available at RTX this year)

There will also be 3 Pit People t-shirt designs (XS – 2XL) and Pit People plushies for sale. Tees are $20 each and Plushies are $25 each.

Everything is available while supplies last since we can only ship so much over from San Diego. Get there early to buy some official Behemoth merch!

Daily Pit People PVP Challenge

RTX attendees looking for some Pit People competition will be rewarded with our brand new competitive Pit People cabinets. Come by our booth and challenge a fellow attendee for a chance to win merch and cash!

PAX East 2017 – Day 3 Recap

Xsplit Road Show – Chris & Ian talk Pit People (Click to see more photos from PAX East 2017 Day 3)

 
We kicked off the last day of PAX East 2017 with a stage demo of Pit People on the Xsplit Road Show. Chris Slight, from Xsplit, was a fan of Pit People and invited us to show it off during their live stream from PAX East. If you missed the live stream, you can still see the 30 minute segment for a limited time in this archived broadcast.

Hardcore Pinny Arcade Trading

 
Back at the Behemoth booth, people were trading for the Pinny Arcade pins that they wanted. Since it was the last day, you can imagine how motivated attendees were to get their collection complete!

Mason running the Pit People Tournament of Attendees

 
In the afternoon, we had our last PAX East 2017 Pit People Tournament of Attendees. The event was emceed by Mason from our QA subdivision, The Research Centaur.

Here’s the final match in progress

The last match between UnaturalX and Ryan was intense. Who would take the final 1st place trophy of PAX East 2017?

The outcome of the Final match. (That Troll Mom tho…)
