Release Date: May 26, 2015
A continuation to the humorous fantasy action RPG from 2011. The production was made by the Swedish studio Pieces Interactive, which previously worked on one of the add-ons to the prequel. The action is set in the world of Midgard, in which almost all wizards were killed during a great war. The survivors are a motley crew of crazy and somewhat quirky characters who must forces to fight another epic battle against evil.
Magicka 2 is the sequel to the hack-and-slash game from 2011, praised for its rich and unique humor. Pieces Interactive, the developer of Magicka 2, is also known for developing such titles as: Magicka: Dungeons & Gargoyles, Leviathan: Warships and Puzzlegeddon. The action of Magicka 2 takes place in the world of Midgard. Most of the mages in Midgard were killed or lost during a great war. Those who survived not only fell into madness but also became very aggressive towards everyone and everything around them. The player must now command this, less then friendly, rabble and once more wage an epic battle against evil. Just like in the first game, this journey will also be full of humor.
As one of the magi, you have a very unique system for creating spells. To cast a spell, you need to combine different elements. Every element will add a specific effect to your enchantment, which allows the player to experiment with different combinations. Magicka 2 promotes replaying the chapters by using artifacts and modifications acquired later on in the journey, as they change the way the levels are meant to be played, either by making them more difficult or just giving them a fun theme or gimmick.
Magicka 2 is focused on the co-op mode. You have to cooperate with the other players to achieve success and progress in the game, but you also need to be careful as you could, unintentionally of course, wound or even kill your fellow mages. The co-op mode is available for every game mode in Magicka 2.

Game Ratings for Magicka 2 Video Game.
Slant Magazine: 2 / 5 by Aaron Riccio
It lies somewhere between a fully formed game in which wizards learn to chain elements into powerful spells and a low-rent improv show.
Gaming Nexus: 7.4 / 10 by Jeremy Duff
Magicka 2 is a stellar adventure as long as you have friends along for the ride. The mechanics of the spellcasting system and the gameplay in general are tuned perfectly for multiple wizards, however flying solo will only bring you frustration and fits of rage.
Attack of the Fanboy: 2.5 / 5 by Emily Speight
Ultimately, Magicka 2 fails to adequately build on its first outing. It feels more like an expansion to the original Magicka, or an unusually faithful remake.
