Press release May 18th, 2015
Nice guys finish last in Magicka 2. Rush towards victory, leaving the remains of your enemies (or friends) behind, in the first Wizard World Championships!

Starting May 26th at 8pm CET, to celebrate the new chapter of the Magicka adventure, Claimony hosts the first world championships together with Paradox, HP and Func. 168 hours later (a week that is) a winner will be generously rewarded as eternal glory awaits.

“There can only be one true wizard! We will honor the winner with awesome Magicka gaming swag and a standing invitation to a lunch with Paradox. You can even bring a friend, if you still have one…” says Graham Murphy, Community Manager at Paradox.

The championships takes place on Claimony, a community where gamers are rewarded for their achievements, and features fine and dandy prizes from partners HP and Func.

Björn Torstensson, CEO of Claimony, ensures there is room for all types of David Copperfield wannabes:

“We are delighted to team up with Paradox and find out who’s the best wizard (and worst friend?) out there. Check out the prizes, follow the leaderboards, poke foes with your staff and get in the game! Can’t compete with the top magicians? No need to worry, we have plenty of fine rewards for mediocre wizards as well.”
