PS3 Castle Crashers has Volleyball, "good sportsmanship" missing

The Behemoth are busy working on getting Castle Crashers to the PlayStation 3, of which there is still no date as they ”don’t have one yet.”

The Volleyball mini-game supports 1-4 players a team, online and local. We’re told it packs a lot of ”explosions, magic, and weaponry.”

”…let’s talk about the release date. This is pretty straightforward actually as we don’t have one yet. We’re looking to finish sometime this year and as soon as we can narrow it down to a specific month, we will be able to talk about this more,” posted Emil Ayoubkhan from developer The Behemoth on the EU PlayStation.Blog.

”It’s basically like playing volleyball with your friends but you get to replace good sportsmanship with explosions, magic, and weaponry. As we get closer to the release, we’ll start revealing some more features and additions.”

Here’s the feature list for Castle Crashers brand Volleyball:

- Local or online play

• From 1-4 players per team for up to 8 player matches

• Variable stats based on character

• Use magic attacks to place 8 new magic status effects on the volleyball

• Cool new serving and spiking moves

• Available AI teammates or opponents

• Play as any character you have unlocked

• Play 1, 3 or 5 matches against your opponents

• Leaderboards to track the best in the land

Castle Crashers proved a major hit when it released on Xbox Live Arcade.
