This is the Magicka MOBA in action

Watch some Wizard Wars in this new video.

Magicka's going MOBA, in case you hadn't heard. Paradox North is taking the brilliantly adaptive, open-ended spellcasting of the 2011 original and putting it in the tightly crafted, super-strategic world of the multiplayer online battle arena. The results, it's fair to say, are pretty interesting.

We already caught a brief look at Magicka: Wizard Wars in action last week, but Ian Higton's got together some new and exclusive footage as well as some handy little interludes from Paradox North's executive vice president John Hargelid explaining what the cock is going on.
