Great news for budding Orc slayers! Robot Entertainment has announced the release date for the sequel to Orcs Must Die! This time featuring what we have all been waiting for.. co-op mode! Not to mention of course a whole bunch of brand new levels, defenses and enemies! Its all kicking off on July 30th. I look forward to seeing you all then for some Orc bashing action!

For more details check out the Robot Entertainment blog post, here is a quick extract to remind you of what to expect:

Orcs Must Die! 2 thrusts players and their friends back into battle against a terrifying mob of orcs and other monsters. With a redesigned spellbook, players will have a broader range of options to build a deadly arsenal of defenses. Investing hard-earned skulls in an enormous new upgrade system will allow players to cater to their favorite methods of burning, grinding, tossing, or dismembering orcs.

Orcs Must Die! 2 begins 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.
