Castle Crashers: Painter Boss Paradise Announced for PC, Includes Steam Workshop Support

During The Behemoth’s roadmap livestream, the developer announced a new DLC for Castle Crashers, its 2008 co-op beat ’em up title (which received a remaster for PS4 and Nintendo Switch in 2019). Painter Boss Paradise lacks a release date, but it’s coming to Steam. Check out the animated announcement trailer below.

The new DLC features a new character, Paint Junior, who can manifest “powerful art” to defeat enemies and new artwork for all playable characters and their weapons. The latter makes the models look more contemporary, though you can turn them off.

However, perhaps the most significant new addition is the integration of Steam Workshop and the ability to create knight skins. One can then share these with other players, expanding the customization to a whole new degree.

Stay tuned for more details and the release date for Painter Boss Paradise in the coming months. Castle Crashers is available for Xbox 360, PS3, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC. Check out our review of the original version here.
