PAX West 2023

Castle Crashers Crashes to Physical

by

Castle Crashers has broken through the digital world’s barrier! We were trying to contain the code as it floated around through the cracks in our office’s eggshell, when we saw it gravitating towards something… a Nintendo Switch cartridge?!

That’s right, Castle Crashers Remastered will soon be available in all its glory for Nintendo Switch as a physical product! The game will cost $29.99 and come with a sticker pack and character unlock guide. We’re pretty stoked, as this is the first time one of our games has been released in physical form since Alien Hominid HD was ported to the GameBoy Advance in 2006. Feel old yet?

You can first get your hands on the physical edition of Castle Crashers at PAX West, sold in a show-exclusive bundle of knightly goodies. Wait, something else is crashing into the physical world for the bundle? Is that a Blacksmith plushie?!

In addition to the game, the bundle (pictured above) includes a Blacksmith plushie, Castle Crashers lanyard, random character holo sticker, and a Necromancer postcard, all wrapped up in an adorably-themed donut box. The box will cost $50.00 and be sold daily throughout the show weekend, and the first 100 boxes sold will have a Castle Crashers medallion!

Can’t join us at PAX West? We’ll be hosting a giveaway for the bundle on Twitter (may the blue bird soar on in our hearts), so be sure to be ready to hit that retweet button. Outside of all this, pre-orders for the physical game itself will go live in our online store next month. Welcome to the physical world, Castle Crashers!

PAX West = Behemoth Merch Galore

by

In just three weeks, the Seattle Convention Center will be bustling with life, full of bouncy video game soundtracks, colorful cosplayers, rowdy tabletop game tables, and most excitingly, merch. With PAX West quickly approaching, it’s time to share what we’ve got planned in that regard!

Here’s a quick preview to prepare you for the purchasing of Behemoth goods:

Now that you’ve seen just a handful of our offerings, here’s some more intel:

– PAX West 2023 Exclusive Tee

This year’s exclusive PAX West t-shirt is, who would have guessed it, Alien Hominid Invasion themed! Grab your mutation juice (on a shirt) today!

– LANYARDS, GET YOUR LANYARDS!

What is PAX without lanyards? You have a badge, you probably have pins (if you don’t, we can fix that), you have whatever sponsored lanyard they give you for free. Why not upgrade to the greatness that is a Behemoth lanyard? We have plenty, including lanyards of all your favorite knights and a fresh-off-the-press Alien Hominid Invasion edition!

– The Return of Behemoth Pinny Pins

Pinny Arcade pins are back! If you want to add some Behemoth to your collection, we have all new designs to share, including new Alien Hominid and Behemoth chicken pins.

– Put a Chicken on Your Head!

We’re bringing FOUR hats this time around, with three new to PAX! Put a chicken on your head, or a copious amount of aliens (with matching button down shirt!), whichever is your preferred style.

– Stickers and Patches Galore

Loads of new stickers and two new patches are landing in the PAX store, with holographic sticker options, alien-related goodies, and MUSCLE CHICKENS! Yes, our little chicken pal has been hitting the gym in preparation for the tradeshow.

– Youtooz-y Tooz?

Our Alien Hominid Youtooz figure will be available at the show! If you missed the pre-order earlier this year, this is a great opportunity to snag the Alien Agent duo.

– And more!

Of course we’ll have many comfy socks in the store, along with other goodies like t-shirts, bandanas, alien bags, the big chicken plush, and blankets! Hooray!

We have one more surprise regarding merch up our sleeves to be announced later this week. Without giving many details, here’s a hint: donut.

See you at the show! (Please bring donuts.)
