Orcs will soon join up with fire & water lords in the first booster pack for Orcs Must Die! 2.
I theorized before that Robot Entertainment might be using Orcs similar to how other game developers use zombies. Orcs are not associated with any country in the real world that would take offense to white men with an addiction to violence; and they breed like rabbits to provide plenty of killing material. However my theory might not be accurate now that Robot Entertainment are throwing in other fantasy creatures like fire lords and water elementals to team up with the green-skins in the first booster pack for Orcs 2.
The new DLC for Orcs Must Die! 2 will introduce new elemental-based monsters from the deepest pits of the fire planes and the dark world of the water plane. Killing a fire lord or elemental will spawn ‘firelings’ from their remains, which will hunt down any player and explode when they get too close. Water lords and elementals might fall into a puddle when killed, but could get back up if enough waterlings find the dormant puddles.
There will be new traps available to any War Mage in Orcs Must Die! 2. Need to quickly slow down the violent horde with sharp weapons? Put a Web Spinner on a wall to make a hallway difficult to pass through. Ceiling Darts will get the drop (pun intended) on Orcs, kobolds or gnolls that pass by, raining poisonous darts onto the ignorant beasts.
The booster pack for Orcs Must Die! 2 will also feature new levels and game modes. Three brand new levels are provided: Traffic Jammed, Double Decker, and the West Wing. New Endless Mode Conversions are available in old and new levels: The Library, West Wing and Double Decker. Also, to prove how good your weapons are as a war mage, you can earn a bonus skull if you can kill the entire horde with just your weapons in a level!
Orcs Must Die! 2 is available right now as a digital download. The first booster pack, Fire & Water will be available on Steam August 29, 2012.
