Castle Crashers busting onto PS3

It has been nearly a year since The Behemoth's Castle Crashers debuted exclusively on Xbox Live Arcade, but PlayStation 3 owners still holding out hope for a port will soon be rewarded for their patience. The Behemoth kicked off this week's Comic-Con with the announcement that Castle Crashers is indeed headed for the PS3.

Beyond the confirmation of a PS3 edition, details about the new version of Castle Crashers are scant. The Behemoth hasn't confirmed a release window yet and has yet to determine if it will include any PS3-exclusive content.

Despite its age, Castle Crashers continues to draw both attention and new players. Last month, The Behemoth announced that it had surpassed 1 million unique gamertags on its leaderboards, proclaiming it "the fastest growing XBLA game in history."
