Magicka: Vietnam dated for April 12, priced photo

Magicka: Vietnam, bound to win many "Most ridiculous DLC of the year" awards if they existed, will finally be released on April 12, 2011 for $4.99.

The DLC sees your Wizard GIs traverse the "Goblin-Cong" jungle to do battle with Vietnam themed enemies and rescue POWs to bring them to da evacuation choppah. Although you'll have access to Vietnam-era weapons, the regular spellcasting system is still in place. Additionally, a new special Magick lets you call in enjoy the smell of napalm strikes.

A new survival challenge map with increased difficulty has also been added with the Magicka: Vietnam, in response to requests from the community. Fun, fun, fun, fun.

Awesome. Never heard of Magicka until now, but if it comes to 360 it will be a day-one purchase for me.

My PC can't even run the DEMO for Magicka and I still bought it. Little late for the pre-order DLC though :(. I shall also buy this DLC for when I can run it(read: When I build my BF3 machine). And yeah, if this comes to 360(rather WHEN), this will be bought instantly.

@gughunter: :D

"a new special Magick lets you call in enjoy the smell of napalm strikes." Really Pew? And a choppah for your second article in a row? That's gotta be a first.

Also have barely been playing anything on PC lately... or console... goddamn PSP and DS being so comfy to pick up and play...
