Your friendly neighborhood wizards at Paradox Interactive and Arrowhead Game Studios have managed to focus their considerable powers and set a release date for the first major Magicka DLC, Magicka: Vietnam.

Magicka: Vietnam will be available on all major digital distribution channels on the 12th of April for $4.99
