Now, Arrowhead Game is working on an action adventure title that seems to reintroduce the same kind of gameplay to modern audiences. In Magicka up to four friends can team up to wreak havoc on an endless stream of enemies with more or less powerful magic. And the developers state that the absolutely best way to enjoy Magicka will be to have those four friends in the same room, watching the same screen as they play - just like Gauntlet was all those year ago."
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
