We’re headed back to Austin, Texas for our 5th time exhibiting at Rooster Teeth Expo (RTX)! You’ll be able to find us at RTX 2017 Booth 401 (next to our friends, Supergiant Games) from July 7 to July 9 and we’re going to have lots of new stuff this year.

Arcade

Our custom-built arcade cabinets are returning with us. Come play Pit People, BattleBlock Theater, and Back Off Barbarian! We’ll also have brand new 2-player Pit People arcade cabinets to play!! These arcade cabinets are built by our hands for your hands!!!

All the demos at RTX are free to play as always. <3

Store

We’ll have official merchandise at our Gift Shop, including blind-boxed capsules in our Chonku Chonku machine! For $5, you’ll be able to get a token to place into the machine and it will pop out a capsule with either a keychain or one of the Castle Crashers mini-figurines! (Pins will no longer be available at RTX this year)

There will also be 3 Pit People t-shirt designs (XS – 2XL) and Pit People plushies for sale. Tees are $20 each and Plushies are $25 each.

Everything is available while supplies last since we can only ship so much over from San Diego. Get there early to buy some official Behemoth merch!

Daily Pit People PVP Challenge

RTX attendees looking for some Pit People competition will be rewarded with our brand new competitive Pit People cabinets. Come by our booth and challenge a fellow attendee for a chance to win merch and cash!

Tribeca Games Festival 2017 Recap

by

Last Friday, our very own John Baez and Ian Moreno went to New York City for one whirlwind weekend! They were there to attend & exhibit at the first ever Tribeca Games Festival, which was an event done in partnership with Kill Screen, and they brought Pit People with them.

Here’s a quick look at the arcade area during set up:

Our Pit People station was bustling on Friday night and Saturday morning. The arcade hours ran from 6:30PM-10:00PM EST on Friday and 9:30AM-2:00PM EST on Saturday. Attendees had their choice of playing our Pit People demo on solo mode or 2-player co-op mode using our custom built arcade sticks:

These controllers go with us to trade shows and are a fan favorite. Speaking of fans, we had a chance to meet and talk with several Behemoth games fans who attended the event! Thanks to everyone who stopped by our station!


We wanted to take more photos but we were so focused on running the station and getting pulled into great conversations with people that we only got to snap a few.

If you have any Pit People photos from the Tribeca Games Festival, please send them to us on Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook. We’d love to see what you saw! You can tag us in the photos on Twitter or Instagram, or share them with us on Facebook on a wall post or private message.

Thanks again to Kill Screen and Tribeca Games for having us in their Arcade in the inaugural Tribeca Games Festival!
