Castle Crashers offers a whopping 32 characters, each unlockable through various in-game challenges and optional DLCs. The best strategy to unlock them all is by leveraging the game's co-op feature to play alongside friends, making the journey more enjoyable and efficient.
Remember, in a co-op session, each player must select a unique character. For instance, you can't have multiple Green Knights in the same lobby. Characters can't be shared across profiles or between players, so everyone needs to unlock their own, but you can do it together in co-op mode.
