Ah, Castle Crashers, that one game that really helped but the Xbox 360’s Live Arcade store on the map. This exclusive download title, (at the time,) managed to capture all of the fun we’d expect from the good ol’ days for 2D hack and slash games, complete with 4 player local and online support, a ton of characters to unlock, and a hilarious sense of humor that we’ve come to expect from the crew at The Behemoth. Well, in case you haven’t heard, Castle Crashers Remastered has released for the Xbox One, complete with new modes, characters, and the option to upload your 360 save. The best part? It’s free if you owned the original… But not for long!
Through September 20th, Xbox loyalists who bought the 360 version can download this to their Xbox One for free. Yep, no catch. No ifs ands or buts. You’ll just have to do it before the date. But what if you forget, or are just too lazy to visit the store? You can still pick it up at a discounted rate of $5. Not bad for one of the better multiplayer games of the last few years, right?
