Paradox Interactive and Arrowhead Studios have heard the rallying cry from Magicka veterans everywhere: Players want the chance to be killed by endless hordes of monsters, and not just by their comrades. That chance has finally arrived, with a pair of new, Challenge Maps soon available for download and play in Magicka, the Game Which Punishes Typos with Swift Explosive Death™. These maps will be released on April 26th, one of which will be offered without requiring so much as a single potato.
Players will soon be able to punish themselves by attempting the Caverns and Marshlands maps, each featuring a different swarm of terrible creatures with an appetite for your face. Wizards can try to survive the Caverns, inhabited by more trolls than this website, or try something refreshing and new in the Marshlands: Zombies, the monster that fills a completely untapped niche.
While both maps are difficult and dangerous enough that adding them to one's Magicka game is the demented act of a madman, one of these maps will be offered entirely free of charge, while the other one will cost a comparatively astronomical $1.99. Choosing which map will be free is an agonizing decision though, which we didn't feel like making, so instead we're opting to conduct an extremely scientific poll via Facebook to let Magicka fans ultimately decide. This poll will run for only 24 hours, allowing it to fit within our very short attention spans. Look, a squirrel! Wait, what did we just say?
Players can choose which map they are too cheap to pay for by visiting this poll:

Both should be free. If not, one should cost just a couple of bucks.

If I'd have to pick one, it'd be Marshlands.

Run the poll on your official website instead of relying on facebook. You'll probably get a larger amount of votes. If you promote it on facebook at the same time, well... it can't go wrong then, can it?

@shisch One will be free and you get to decide! And the other will cost $1.99. Cheers Regina

@Paradoxplaza Oh, just two dolares? That's great! Thanks :)

[Paradoxplaza]

@shisch My pleasure!

That would be incredibly more complicated. No FB? Don't vote. It's not such a big deal anyways.

the cavern map, the major problems are the lack of space and dwarf priest's.

any good user of magicks can deal with the tight space (just dont spam vortex), but damm... i don't care who you are, them priest's are gona take you down.

with lighting immunity, nearly all major damage spells and magicks start doing pathetic damage. and there pure rock projectile can, and will, one hit you.

another thing worthy of note is that magicks like lighting and rain don't work because its under cover.

@InanZen Be happy the average european is wealthier than the average american, and thus can afford it, then.

[InanZen]

@shisch that's probably gonna be 2€ for some ppl

[deadmeh]

I'd would be nice if instead of all this random dlc you could actual optimize the game and you know fix some bugs?

@Paradoxplaza

Since I live in Germany I'll probably have to pay 3 bucks for one challenge map anyway because Steam "magickally" turns $ in €.

Anyway, it's not like you get one for free, more like you get one for the price of 2 challenge maps.

Full Game = 10 bucks

15 minutes Addon = 5 bucks

2 challenge maps = 4 bucks (if you had to pay both)

Since I don't think 2 maps cost almost as much as the Vietnam addon with multiple maps, new weapons, new outfits and a new magick you'll have to pay for both

[amazed2341]

cant you make vids to click and which one has the most votes wins but you can only watch one because I dont want an fb account.
