Developer and publisher of PC-based strategy games, Paradox Interactive and developers Arrowhead Games have announced that Magicka will be available via limited Closed Beta and released details on how to be in with a chance of obtaining access. Based on Norse mythology and packed with magical spells, Magicka is a fantasy game that pitches the gamer against wise and whacky wizards who will torch you with a large amount of friendly fire in multiplayer mode.
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.
Hope I get in!
