I own Magicka on Steam, like many other people out there, but I cannot claim to have played it more than ten hours. It is a fun game, one with many levels, spells and secrets to find, but it was hard for my friend and I to get into it. Magicka has had DLC released fairly often and there newest DLC is quite exciting. The Stars Are Left is all about R'lyeh, a world from H.P. Lovecraft Cthulu universe and with that we have an adventure that is filled with mythical monsters. On top of that it also throws in two new challenge maps, two new robes/outfits, two new bosses, five new achievements, seven new enemies and to quote Arrowhead Studios, "considerably more than 2 new items and Magicks." This DLC came out today, the 29th, on Steam and it costs $6. You can of course play the DLC cooperatively or alone.

 

Besides the DLC there is one more item that Arrowhead released for Magicka recently released, back on November 16th. If you haven't played the game in a while you probably won't have noticed their updates, but in preperation for The Stars Are Left they released this "massive tech update" that contains some nice improvements, improvement that I'm a little surprised weren't already made. Here is the list of those updates.
