Castle Crashers offers 32 playable characters, each unlocked through various challenges, from conquering arenas to completing optional DLC content. Teaming up with friends in co-op mode is the fastest way to build your collection. Remember, each player in a co-op game needs to select a different character; you can't have two players as the Green Knight, for instance. Unlocks are also character-specific and not shared across profiles or players. Let's get to the good stuff!

Here's a complete list of all characters and how to unlock them:
