You'll get over it.īattleBlock Theater is a triumph of a platformer. And every time the narrator chimes in with "I can't believe you died there!" or a "You're doing it wrong, do it right!" you'll be one step closer to controllercide.

The Arena is home to several different modes, which basically boil down to collecting, racing, or beating on the opposing team.

Once you've beaten the main campaign you can play community made maps and featured stages.
