Castle Crashers DLC Teased
Two New Playable Characters and a Chainsaw
by Coop

The Behemoth have updated their official website and shed some light on upcoming downloadable content for Castle Crashers. Apparently the King and Necromancer will both be in the game in playable form, and a chainsaw will be an unlockable weapon. While I would have preferred a blog posting explaining that the online issues will be fixed asap, I can’t hide the fact that I’m extremely excited at the prospect of playing as an old man with a chainsaw. Screaming Evil Dead quotes as I slaughter enemy knights is an idea I can get behind, and my guess is that the DLC will likely be a free update, a sign of apology for delivering a $15 game with a slew of unresolved issues.
What other DLC would you like to see in Castle Crashers? More characters? More weapons? More levels? I’d like to see more of everything, especially more bug fixes.

I am so missing out on something by not having this game. Maybe this week...
Dude, that's loose change DLC. As long as it is free, and part of an update that addresses bugs it will be good stuff. Paying for two characters and a weapon? No dice.
Also, Im not sure how robust the arena mode is. Does it ever involve bosses? As far as I've seen it's just the main enemies. I'd like to see the waves of baddies interspersed with some boss fights.
Don't tease so much!
One DLC I'd like to see is a co-op arena mode. Put four players in an arena with an endless stream of bad guys, then have a leaderboard tracking the best scores.
I can't wait for this update, but it would be nice if I could get a patch, because the game deleted all of my items and animal orbs because I lagged out of an online game. Luckily I went through the game again and got everything back
