Robot Entertainment today announced that they will make available 10 maps from the original Orcs Must Die! for co-op play in a special Classic Mode in Orcs Must Die! 2. War Mages will head back into their favorite old fortresses, but this time they’ll bring along a friend and a huge new arsenal of traps, spells, weapons, and trinkets. Even the best players will have to rethink their tried and true strategies as they face angry mobs featuring all of the sequel’s new monsters. Players who own the original Orcs Must Die! on Steam will automatically unlock these 10 exclusive levels for free in Orcs Must Die! 2. Players who haven’t yet downloaded Orcs Must Die! can pick it up for a limited time for 50% off on Steam.
Orcs Must Die! 2 begins just days after the ending of the original game. With the rifts closed and the magical Order dead, the War Mage finds himself suddenly thrust into a new battle against the mindless orc mob. He has a powerful, if questionable, new companion in the Sorceress, an ex-War Mage responsible for the destruction of the Order. Orcs Must Die! 2 will be available on Steam on July 30th, 2012.
