'Castle Crashers' Steam Update Gets New Minigame, Unlocks Frame Rate

Say goodbye to the old button-mashing minigame.

Developer The Behemoth announced that an update titled "Barbarian Makeover" will be coming to the Steam edition of 'Castle Crashes' on Wednesday, October 14.

Perhaps the most prominent addition in this update is the new minigame Back Off Barbarian, which will replace the old All You Can Quaff button-mashing minigame. Back Off Barbarian, which is already featured on the game's Remastered edition on Xbox One, has players avoiding barbarian tokens by having their own token jump around a square grid.

Since the new minigame will be completely replacing the previous one, players have until Wednesday to have their fill of All You Can Quaff. Steam players who already received the Glork achievement from All You Can Quaff will see it change names and become the Final Countdown achievement from Back Off Barbarian.

Also coming in the update Wednesday are an uncapped frame rate, an Ultra textures mode for higher-end rigs, and a retooled interface.
