Development
Magicka: Marshlands and Magicka: Caverns are new DLCs announced by Paradox on April 20, 2011, featuring the new Marshlands Survival Challenge and Caverns Survival Challenge maps with swarms of enemies. Paradox conducted a poll on Facebook lasting 24 hours, allowing fans to decide which of the two challenge map will be given free to owners of Magicka, while the other will have a retail price of USD $1.99. The poll concluded with the majority vote that Magicka: Caverns will be provided free on April 26, 2011.
