Fending off dozens of creatures with rapid clicks of a mouse button isn't particularly new to computer players; in fact, mention this scenario and most people will immediately think of Diablo. But what if there was a game that intentionally skewered all of Diablo's conventions by parodying the fantasy elements that action classic held dear? You might just have Magicka, an upcoming adventure from Arrowhead Game Studios and Paradox Interactive.
As Arrowhead Game Studios turns 15, join us in celebrating its past and learn how its first game Magicka influenced Helldivers 2.
I played Magicka, but I never realized it was the same dev as Helldivers. Makes plenty of sense considering how much friendly fire is in Magicka lol
"The founders of Arrowhead Game Studios (the team behind one of the world's biggest international game successes with the game "Magicka") is now investing in the Swedish Gaming company Mind Detonator whose business concept is to capture talent at a very early stage and build the next generation of gaming developers far from the big cities." - Arrowhead Game Studios
Arrowhead Studios, the developers of Helldivers and the Magicka series are working on a new third-person online co-op game.
