GPT: "Let’s face it… wizards are pretty damn cool. Whether it may be Gandalf, Dumbledore, or Elminster, wizards are always some of the coolest characters in any fantasy setting. I personally think it’s because of the beards. Although the wizards of Magicka lack the beards of renowned wizards of the past (at least I think so), they make up for it with the satisfying pain they can dish out. Magicka is a goofy and addictive top down adventure title created by Arrowhead studios and published by Paradox software. The game puts you in control of a wizard who by himself (or more likely in a group of four similarly gifted magicians) unleashes eldritch punishment to all enemies through mixing the primal elements of Earth."
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.
When is this thing hitting PSN and XBLA? It's been "TBA" forever on IGN.
It's been out for a while on PC if you are really looking forward to playing it. Steam has a bundle pack that comes with all the DLC's out for it.
this is a really good game and a blast to play co op with 3 other friends. hopefully it hits cobsoles soon. it deserves sales!!!
