PAX East 2016 is almost over! We had so much packed in our schedule for Friday and Saturday that we didn’t get a chance to say hello on our blog yet.
Yesterday, we kicked off PAX East with our press breakfast at our booth. Media had a chance to come by for coffee and play Pit People.
Then came the PAX East Friday attendees. Everyone has been so awesome and the new co-op demo was packed the entire time.
We also had a new photo op area with a giant backdrop for Pit People and our classic statues: Blue Knight, Barbarian, and Cupcake. And last but not least, we had the early sign ups for our Pit People closed beta!
For more photos from Day 1 of PAX East, check out this album on Flickr. Pictures from Day 2 will be up late tonight!
Hello. I am new to the world and I am coming to PAX East booth 4025. I am just one of many new items that will be available at the gift shop.
Oh, did you think we were talking about the baby? Heavens, no! That’s sold separately. What we will have for sale are our new line of baby onesies!
Onesies!!! Our designs include Choose Your Own Adventure (Tofu), Hello Green Knight, and Giraffe. We’ll have sizes 12-18 months and 18-24 months for your infants and toddlers. This is our first time ever doing onesies and we’re excited to bring this new line of Behemoth gear for our youngest fans!
We also have several items for those who like to separate their tops from their bottoms! These are all new to PAX East:
We’re excited to head back to Boston in April for Penny Arcade Expo East 2016! With lots of luck, it will be much warmer than PAX East 2015. Remember how last year we caught the tail end of Snowmageddon? Brrrrrrr. Let’s cross our fingers for sunshine and blue skies.
We’ll be back in our same location by the escalators located on the far left of the Exhibit Hall BUT our booth number has been changed to Booth 4025!
If you get lost, you can just look for our usual circular banner hanging over the booth. We’re also bringing back our Gift Shop and custom built arcade stations for our games!
PAX East attendees may recognize our Pit People dodecagon of single player arcade demo stations, our Castle Crashers Remastered arcade cabinet, and our BattleBlock Theater arcade cabinet.
New to PAX East this year:
-Our Back Off Barbarian mini game in a new custom built arcade cabinet. This mini game is found in Castle Crashers Remastered on Xbox One and Castle Crashers for Steam.
-Pit People co-op couches that will use our portable arcade sticks. This is the debut of our 2 player co-op demo–never before seen at any show we’ve done thus far!

If you find yourself enjoying Pit People and can’t wait for the game release, you’ll be able to sign up for our closed beta while you’re at the booth. And you can quell your cravings for PP by getting one of our new Pit People tees:
