Magicka Charms its Way to the Top of Steam - PC

Somebody must have mixed a strong potion because wizards aren’t typically this attractive.

Paradox announce its highly anticipated action-adventure game Magicka, has sold over 30,000 copies across all digital download platforms in less than 24hrs, and is currently the No 1 bestselling game on Steam.
However, the fantastic success of Magicka is not a signal for the development team to pop open the jars of mead and relax after celebrating. Arrowhead Studios is working around the sundial and is fully committed to ongoing support by zapping glitches and communicating with players. The dev team has plenty more to conjure up so be on the lookout for more announcements and keep those wands ready, wizards!

“The reception for Magicka has been better than we dared to hope, watching the numerous YouTube clips of gamers and editors worldwide laughing themselves senseless as they misfire spells left and right as well as the comments on twitter and forums show us people really get the humor and the idea behind Magicka.” said Shams Jorjani, Producer at Paradox Interactive. “Singleplayer and LAN is what most people are currently playing but updating the multiplayer lobby and continuously improving the game is our top priority. “

Paradox and Arrowhead games are posting daily updates on the game at the Steam and Paradox forums.
