Put On Your Bathrobe And Watch Us Play Magicka 2

Eric Murphy

Our first night with Magicka 2 started us off on an adventure of epic proportions. We flew through the first four missions in just short of two hours. Magicka 2's tagline "learn to spell again" was definitely the theme of the night since the learning curve is a bit rough after being away from Magicka for so long. Regardless, we had a good time and we planned to continue the quest on another night.

New Elements and Add-Ons in Magicka 2

Jason Love

In addition to the update to the game that added these elements, two new add-on packs are available for purchase. The first, titled "Gates of Midgard Challenge Pack," adds three new challenge maps to those that are available to you in the game's Challenge mode. One of the maps looks like it's in some kind of Egyptian tomb while another looks like it's set in a jungle. The other add-on, "Three Cardinals Robe Pack," just adds three new robes for your wizard to wear: a "Laurence of Arabia" looking affair, a frozen king, and a samurai.

Magicka 2 Co-Op Review

Jason Love

There’s a wonderful, chaotic fun to Magicka 2 that carries you through the first few story levels, but begins to fizzle and die shortly thereafter. The creative freedom that made the craziness of the original title so great feels like it has been reigned in some, much to the sequel’s detriment. ...

New Magicka 2 Trailer Utilizes Expensive Titles

John Bardinelli

There, don't you feel better now? Those people looked like they were having fun. Real fun, not fake scripted fun. When the game releases on May 26th for PC and PlayStation 4, I'll have fun like those people, what with the casting of spells and co-op gameplay and whatnot. Boy, Magicka 2 sure does seem swell. I might buy two copies just... because.

Magicka 2 Trailer Doesn't Feature Any Vampires

Paradox Interactive announced Magicka 2: Learn to Spell Again back at E3 2014, but only now has the healing truly begun. The upcoming sequel features more of what made the original game so insane, including four player co-op action, element-based spell mixing/casting, and friendly fire that makes everything you do dangerous to everyone around. In addition to the revamped old, Magicka 2 comes with a brand new storyline and gameplay that's "different each time you play". Randomly generated stages, perhaps?

[E3 2014] - Dust Off Your Robes and Hat, Magicka 2 Coming to PS4 and PC

Jason Love

The original Magicka was a pretty crazy affair. Players could combine different elements individually to make some destructive spells, or combine them with other players to make even more destructive spells, and then cast lightning bolts and kill everyone. It was, in two words, hella fun. I'm usually not a fan of griefing in co-op but it added so much that I can't imagine the game without it.
