All Characters in Castle Crashers (How to Unlock)

Castle Crashers offers a diverse cast of characters that players can unlock through various methods, including gameplay challenges and optional DLCs. Playing with friends using the co-op feature is the fastest way to unlock as many characters as possible.
One important rule to keep in mind: In a co-op lobby, each player must choose a different character for every playthrough. For instance, two players can’t both play as the Green Knight. Additionally, characters are personal—each player must unlock their own versions, even when playing together.
Here’s a complete list of all characters and how to unlock them:
