To detail a little more about our hapless characters, The Behemoth has released a set of videos highlighting several Battleblock prisoners.

BattleBlock Theater, the third game from The Behemoth (Castle Crashers, Alien Hominid), has been delayed and pushed right out of 2010 as the game "is becoming so much more than we ever expected."

It feels like no other game out there - there's a little more r&d than we thought and lots of new ground to break. This means we will not be releasing in 2010.

The Behemoth's project previously known only as 'Game 3' will be named BattleBlock Theater and hit Xbox Live Arcade, the Castle Crashers developer has announced.

"Friendship, betrayal, and a whole truck load of cats" are promised as players are "forced into deadly performances" in the eponymous theatre, as shown in a new trailer.

BattleBlock Theater's downloadable Xbox 360 release is slated for this year. The Behemoth is also due to bring action RPG Castle Crashers to PlayStation 3 in 2010. Read more »

Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers developer The Behemoth has issued the first trailer for its as-yet-untitled third project, a side-scrolling platformer due out in 2010.

"A super early version of our next game," wrote the studio. "No title has been determined at this time, or price point, or which console it will be on."

The Behemoth, developer of the XBLA hit Castle Crashers, today released the first image related to its upcoming third game.

The art (pictured left) was posted on Behemoth's official developer blog, where the company also noted that a trailer for the game will debut on March 18. Read more »
