Cupcake makes a grand entrance into BBT Steam

Hear ye! Hear ye! All ye loyal subjects of the mysterious BattleBlock Theater (Steam version), we introduce to you the most honorable Cupcake of Game 4.

Earlier this week we revealed some more developments on Game 4: the customizable options of our special healing unit, Cupcakes. In honor of this special occasion, Cupcake has made its way over to BattleBlock Theater Steam as a special unlock. Just load up the full version of the game and this character will be added to your Star prisoners.

For our players on XBLA, you will be getting two special unlocks this week along with the new Arena Feature. Although not quite edible, these two special unlocks are still pretty sweet! When you load up BBT on XBLA, you’ll get Stubby (which is exclusive to XBLA) and Hatzilla.

We thought it was final, and we suppose it still is Final — here is the return of The Final Unicorn. Look at it and all the majestic glory it represents!

BattleBlock Theater players will have the chance to unlock this reward when completing either the solo or co-op playlist in Furbottom’s Features. This week we have updated the solo playlist in Furbottom’s Features for both XBLA and Steam versions of the game:
 
Furbottom’s Features Updates
 
XBLA Solo Feature:
Chapter1 story by justmalice
Difficulty level – Easy
A walk in the laser and buzzsaw filled park. Playlists of this difficulty will be a smooth experience full of interesting ideas more so than relentless challenge. These will generally be easier than the original Story mode campaign.
 
Steam Solo Feature:
Happy Camp by Stan_
Difficulty level – Intermediate
Oh, the lovely middle. The greenest grass will occasionally be right here, firmly content to be on the fence. Levels in line with the difficulty of the original Story campaign will be here. Expect some challenge, but nothing too strenuous.
