Only Santa Claws himself could possibly be more generous.

We both know you're dying to feel your presents, and despite knowing better, I'll even go as far as spoiling all the surprises for you. If you really just GOT TO KNOW, read on...


[h2]Yeti Crab[/h2]



  • Cute new playable crab. The cutest, but unlike the Yeti irl, it's not the most rare.
  • Special attack - Bash attack! You won't like Yeti when he's angry.
  • 3 Skins to Collect, and they're all completely ridiculous!


[h2]New level - Christmas Island[/h2]



  • This amazing event will be live throughout the Christmas period!
  • A brand new Boss Fight - have you been a good crab? We all know you haven't, so it's time to test your Christmas spirit in a pincer-to-pincer fight with the one and only Santa-CLAWS!!!



    He has 3 different attacks: Snow Storm, Freeze and Bash. Defeat this nefarious boss to win seasonal prizes!
  • Enemy Elf & Snowman Crabs to contend with.


[h2]Additional Seasonal Content[/h2]
  • Free Santa hats for all! Don't say we never treat you.
  • Candy Canes - whack anything with these brand new weapons, and instead of dropping meat, you gain sweets!



  • Christmas presents pickups for the occasional surprise.
  • Christmas item scavenger hunt... you'll have to play to find out!
  • A lovely seasonally-themed front end and splash screen, because what would a Christmas update be without a snowy beach.




[h2]Super Quests[/h2]
  • 8 new challenging Daily Quest types, to really up the heat on these cold days!
  • Complete to earn MASSIVE rewards. Seriously, the kind that won't fit under the tree.
  • New items to collect, scattered around the maps.


Well, I'm sure you'll agree that we've been rather generous! Spoiling you rotten! No Scrooge here!

See in there... and stay frosty!

Steam Awards

We've been overjoyed with the reaction King of Crabs has received on Steam since going into early access in July. An award would be amazing but the most important thing for us is to keep improving the game and making sure you players are having as much fun as possible!!

Halloween Special - Devil’s Island

We won’t lie, Devil’s Island is not a nice place.

If you survive the hoards of evil Skeleton Crabs, Giant Spiders and Lava you might just earn yourself a crack at the Demonic Devil Crab. He lives on top of the Volcano and wields a fire sword. Death is certain, but get your claws on the Devil’s Horns and glory will be yours.
