While Arrowhead Game Studios finished up and shipped Helldivers the other day, Paradox and Pieces Interactive have been hard at work on a sequel to the Swedish team's isometric adventure. Magicka 2 was first revealed at Sony's E3 press conference last year to an incredibly ridiculous trailer. Well, Paradox have one upped themselves as not only have they announced the release date for Magicka 2, but they've done so in a hilarious fashion.

Magicka 2 will be released for PC and PlayStation 4 on May 26 (with a Linux release in fall). In addition, the trailer they used to announce this parodies the intro to the Game of Thrones TV show.
