Castle Crashers Remastered Out Now on Xbox One!

Castle Crashers Remastered has launched in select countries on Xbox One via the ID@Xbox self-publishing program! Get it today for $14.99 or for FREE as a special, limited promotion if you’re a loyal Castle Crashers Xbox 360 player. You’ll just need an active Xbox Live Gold membership, the same gamer profile that owns Castle Crashers on Xbox 360, and get this game by September 20, 2015!
 
Starting September 21st, if you are an Xbox 360 owner of Castle Crashers, we’re offering a special loyalty discount which will bring CCR’s cost down to only $5.00.
 
And don’t forget that today is also the release day for Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime! Both these games have couch co-op, so we’re self proclaiming today to be International Couch Co-Op Day!

Mini-Game & Unlockables
 
So what do you get in Castle Crashers Remastered? Our 2D hack n’ slash game has been remastered to 60 frames per second, five times larger texture sizes, and online multiplayer updates that will allow you to find games easier and quicker online compared to the Castle Crashers of the past (on Xbox 360). We’ve also added a new mini game called “Back Off Barbarian!” But wait there’s even more! In addition to all of the classic characters & animal orbs you’ve come to love, all of the following special characters and animal orbs can also be unlocked in the game for free:
 
Special Characters:
King, Open Faced Gray Knight, Necromancer, Cult Minion, Blacksmith, Pink Knight, Alien Hominid, Hatty Hattington

Special Animal Orbs:
Pelter, Dragonhead, Golden Whale

If you’ve played Castle Crashers on Xbox 360, you can transfer your save data to keep all of the characters & animal orbs you already unlocked. Scroll down to the bottom of this post for an explanation on how to transfer your save data!
