Tournament of Champions

EDIT —-> check out This Page for more Tournament info!!

To celebrate Castle Crashers reaching over 2 million players on XBLA we’re going to have a little (BIG!) tournament for all you millions of XBLA Castle players. So I hereby introduce The Behemoth’s first ever…


With all these people playing Castle Crashers.. many have claimed to have the unparalleled skillz, the bestest combos, the most awesome attacks. Finally, once and for all we shall know:

Who is the best Castle Crashers Arena Fighter in all the world?

The first prize of the Tournament of Champions is a Gold Xbox. Yes, a functional Xbox plated in 24k GOLD. Imagine playing on a golden Xbox. Envision the look on your friend’s faces. Kings and Queens would come over to your house to play BattleBlock Theater.

2nd prize will also win an Xbox, though not of silver- an Castle Crashers themed Elite. 3rd place will drown their nearness to victory in 250 squishy chickens. Everyone in the top 100 will win a prize, and the top 24 will get a special bonus as well. Here’s how its going to go down:

To be eligible for the tournament you have to be in the top 100 Weekly Ranked Arena players on the Castle Crashers leaderboards at noon (PST) on January 28th. You will have all that week to battle amongst yourselves to claim those spots.  The top 100 will compete in 1 on 1 Arena matches, in a single elimination tournament format on Saturday February 5th, until we have a victor! You have 2 weeks to hone your skills before the tournament begins!
