Battle it out in the Arena with Snail!

by

We have good news! Blocketeer and Moose will stay up over the weekend, but we’re giving you another special unlock today too!

 

FeaturePost_SnailTo fit the sluggish summer we’re experiencing due to humid San Diego weather, we’re unlocking Snail! All you’ll need to do is load up BattleBlock Theater and make your way to an online area. Getting the Snail will be that fast!

 

Just make sure your Snail doesn’t get a-salted in the featured Arena playlist!

 

We are keeping the Behemoth created playlists as the Arena Feature at this time since the Arena Playlist Creation Contest is still open until August 15th.

 

Reminder: Special unlocks in Steam will not be available to sell or trade until after they are no longer available to unlock in game. Click here for the specifics on that.

 

Furbottoms Features – Now updated!

by

Howdy folks! We sure hope you had a good time following our Comic Con news this past weekend. It was a crazy hectic weekend, but we are now back in the office ready to bring more fun community levels to you in BattleBlock Theater.
 
As many of you know, we generally update the Furbottom’s Features section of BBT on Fridays. We had to push the Furbottoms Features cooperative playlist to this Monday, but we will be resuming the Friday schedule this week and updating the Arena Feature again this Friday.
 
So here are the two community co-op playlists that we’ve featured in BattleBlock Theater:
 
In XBLA:
Random Levels by The Hobb1t
 
In Steam:
Fun co-op v.2 by reridse

Click the links above for a photo preview and a write up by our level designers.

 

For those who finish either the Furbottom’s Features co-op or solo, you’ll be able to unlock Blocketeer once you’ve completed all the levels!

 

Yep, you’ll be able to jet around the levels with this fella. I reckon you don’t want to miss this opportunity.

 

As an added bonus for playing BattleBlock Theater online, players will also be unlocking Moose for a limited time.

Comic Con 2014 – Day 4 Pictures

We made it! The four days of Comic Con, plus Preview night, are now done. Within a few hours after the exhibit hall closed, we were able to tear down the booth with our super hero team. Below are a few pictures of what went down in the final hours of Day 4 at SDCC. If you’d like to see all of our photos from Day 4, please click HERE.

Our 12th year at Comic Con was fantastic! Thank you to all of the fans who stopped by with words of encouragement and support for our games. And thanks to those who weren’t able to make it but joined us by watching our live stream on our Twitch channel.
 
We’ve just got one more show to go this year! See you all next month at PAX Prime!
