Castle Crashers downloadable content “Painter Boss Paradise” will launch for PC via Steam this summer for $3.99, developer The Behemoth announced.
“After 16 years, when it came time to give Castle Crashers some more love, I started by drawing brand new knights,” explained The Behemoth co-founder and art director Dan Paladin in a press release. “I was able to do this fairly quickly and thought, ‘Why shouldn’t everyone have the ability to do this?,’ so—BOOM—the Painter Boss gave us all a perfect opportunity to make a natural shift to creating. People have wanted new characters so often—this allows the whole community to finally share more than we could ever give them!”
Here is an overview of the content, via The Behemoth:
