From E3 a few months ago, we brought you the humorous announcement trailer for Magicka 2, the sequel to the popular Magicka. Now Paradox has released a second video that, between you and me, is even weirder than the first. It's all in good fun, however, and if you're good at karoake yourself, you could win a free copy of the game!
Today, we’re asking for help from the PlayStation community. We’ve opened a contest for anyone who wants to sing their own version of the karaoke video we just showed you! Ambitious and foolhardy songsmiths can grab an instrumental version of the song from the trailer, along with an .mp4 video file with the lyrics. Sing along, create your own karaoke video, and you can win a sweet prize!
That's right! Download an instrumental version of the song here along with the lyrics and send in your own version to nab a free copy of the game when it's ready.
We also have some new information to give you from Paraox Interactive's blog.
Chaos sure is beautiful, right? Just like the original game, Magicka 2 is a game where you and up to three friends control Wizards on a quest through the far away and baffling realm of Midgård, combining eight elements into a series of devastating spells to slay your foes and, sometimes, “accidentally,” slay your friends.
Mash together fire, rock, and arcane elements to fling a flaming death boulder, or water, cold, and shield magic to throw up a spiky ice barrier, or use one of the secret, special Magicks found in-game to cook up something really special for the foes you’ll meet out there.
Right now everyone in the team is hard at work on the adventure campaign, making sure the experience is as much fun and as challenging as one would expect from the Magicka sequel.
Magicka 2 will be coming exclusively to the PS4 early in 2015.
