BattleBlock Theater 5th Anniversary Celebrations

by

Five years ago, we launched our 3rd game, BattleBlock Theater, on XBLA! We took the platformer genre and inserted our humor & art style into this game; This game where players run around an abandoned theater being forced to do stage plays by evil and technologically advanced felines.

 
Since then, we’ve also brought it to Windows, Linux, and Mac OS in the STEAM version!

With the 5th Anniversary coming up on April 3rd, we thought it’d be fun to have a couple giveaways and an event on the day of:

Instagram Giveaway


We’re giving away 5 Buckle Your Pants tees on Instagram! Follow us on Instagram & tag a friend in the comments of this post, be sure to tag someone who you think would like BattleBlock Theater. Each person you tag is an entry into our giveaway.

Enter by 12PM PDT on April 3, 2018 and we’ll choose 5 qualified entrants on April 4th. Winners will be notified over Instagram direct message.

This year, we’re bringing a few new items that you won’t want to miss out on! Below is the Mega List of Merch:

Bundling up a kaleidoscope of colorful combat

by

ICYMI: Pit People had its full release earlier this month! For you Behemoth supporters out there, we wanted to give you a heads up that you’ll get special Castle Crashers & BattleBlock Theater items in Pit People when you own both games on the same account.

For Steam players, you’ll get the blue knight, red knight, orange knight, and green knight helmets for owning Castle Crashers + Pit People. If you also own BattleBlock Theater, you’ll unlock a Hatty face and Cat Guard skin for your Mascots in Pit People.

For Xbox One players, because Castle Crashers Remastered is our only other Xbox One game, you’ll get all six items for owning both Castle Crashers Remastered and Pit People on the same account.

Bundles of Joy

If you don’t already own both games to unlock these cross unlocks then we’ve got good news for you: Today our Castle Crashers Remastered + Pit People Bundle just released on Xbox One! You can get two of our games at a discounted price. We also have a similar bundle on Steam with our Castle Crashers + Pit People Bundle. Get both games for yourself or gift it to a friend!

A kaleidoscope of colorful combat, enjoy two of our couch co-op adventures in one lovingly wrapped package!

Have your hack n’ slash and eat your strategy too in a bundle that pairs Castle Crasher’s classic arcade beat ’em up with the fast-paced, turn based action of Pit People! Loaded with weapons and characters to discover, both games feature dangerously hilarious landscapes for you to explore, either alone or with some of your friendliest besties. Add a side dish of fresh and exciting PVP combat to your experience, if you want… or not! We’re not here to tell you how to play.

Because we love you.
