Embark on a thrilling adventure in *Castle Crashers*, the beloved online co-op game known for its humorous gameplay and diverse character roster. If you're eager to unlock all 32 unique characters and enhance your gaming experience, this guide will walk you through the steps to achieve that goal. Whether through gameplay challenges or optional DLCs, each character adds a new layer of fun and strategy to your playthrough. Playing in co-op mode with friends not only amplifies the fun but also maximizes your opportunities to unlock characters efficiently.
Remember, in co-op sessions, each player must select a different character. For instance, you can't have two players using the Green Knight simultaneously. Characters are not shareable across profiles or between players in a lobby; everyone needs to unlock them individually, though this can be done in a co-op setting.
Below is a detailed list of all characters in *Castle Crashers* and the methods to unlock them:
