Dive into the delightful chaos of *Castle Crashers*, an online co-op game that's as fun as it is challenging. With a roster boasting 32 unique characters, you're in for a treat as you learn how to unlock each one. Whether through gameplay challenges or snagging optional DLCs, there's a character waiting for every kind of player. And, if you're playing with friends, the co-op feature is your best bet for unlocking them all efficiently. Just remember, in a co-op lobby, everyone needs to pick a different character—no duplicates allowed. Characters aren't shareable across profiles or players, so everyone has to earn their own, but you can do it together in co-op. Ready to expand your team? Here's the ultimate guide on how to unlock all characters in *Castle Crashers*.

*Castle Crashers* boasts a diverse cast of 32 characters, each with their own unique unlock method. From battling bosses to completing arenas and even diving into DLC content, there's a way to unlock every character. Playing in co-op mode with friends is the most enjoyable way to tackle these challenges, ensuring you and your crew can collect all the characters. Remember, though, each player in a co-op session must choose a different character, and characters can't be shared across profiles or between players. Each player will need to unlock characters individually, but doing so in a co-op setting can make the journey more fun.
