We’ve always eyeballed Nintendo’s platforms with a very warm heart. Our debut title ( Alien Hominid) was available on both Game Boy Advance and Nintendo GameCube.

Higher resolutions, higher frame rates, chances to make tweaks, and better overall quality.

Taking advantage of the updated hardware of each generation is also very satisfying. When we make games we want them to stick around. With Alien Hominid not being ported often, we’ve seen it slowly become unavailable in most places. Well, aside from it being one of the most requested things we get asked there’s some less obvious reasons. Why bring Castle Crashers Remastered to two more platforms now?

Its PC version was released later in September 2012 and the Xbox One receive a remastered in September 2015. We can stop asking and start counting down the days until we can enjoy some of that madcap Medieval action on the go.The developer Behemoth announced today that Castle Crashers Remastered will be coming to both PlayStation 4 and Switch this Summer.Ĭastle Crashers first launched for Xbox 360 in August 2008, followed by PlayStation 3 in August 2010.

As the team stated in a blog post, they have been questioned about the remaster of the beloved brawler for a long time, and can now proudly confirm that it has a release date on Nintendo Switch at last: The next huge indie deal is none other than The Behemoth’s Castle Crashers, which we’ve known was incoming for months now. RELATED: Nintendo Thanks ‘Our Friends At Microsoft’ For Helping Bring Cuphead To The Switch Not only that, but it’s become a haven for the biggest indie titles, like Hollow Knight and Cuphead. That sentiment has continued to gather steam, and now, The Witcher 3 is on its way to the plucky little handheld hybrid that could. Early on, it was blessed with big titles like Doom and Skyrim, which, while hardly cutting edge, represented quite a third-party commitment. The Switch has been a treasure trove of riches in comparison. Just ask the Wii U, which flopped like something very floppy indeed because nobody would touch it with a barge pole. You need third-party support and top-notch indie devs on board. This is partly due to the great first-party titles, which have always been the company’s strong suit ( Fire Emblem: Three Houses was the latest smash-hit), but you need more than that. It had its naysayers and doubters, and it certainly still has its persistent issues ( Nintendo Switch Online is going to have more than just NES games to offer one day, we promise), but the system’s been a barnstorming success by all accounts. Whichever way you slice it, the Switch is sitting pretty at the moment. We all knew it was coming, but finally we’ve got a release date locked in: Castle Crashers is coming to Nintendo Switch on September 17.
