Description

Step into the role of a powerful War Mage, defend the rift from the grotesque mob, and embrace the chaos of orc annihilation. The castle doors are thrown wide open to exciting new features, including:

Four-player Co-op
Deeper Progression Systems
Rogue-lite Build Options
Expanded level variety and vast outdoor fantasy environments
Spectacular physics and more ridiculous orc deaths
Visceral third-person shooter and melee combat

Enjoy the game solo or in co-op teams of up to four players – each option provides unique challenges and rewards. The game is designed to adjust to the number of players, ensuring a balanced and exciting contest in any combination.


Find your role among new War Mages, each with unique weapons, abilities, traps, and personality. Each hero is tailored to different play styles and can operate independently or work together with complementing heroes, ensuring versatile and mighty orc-smashing.

Face intensifying waves of orcs and other hideous beasts with randomized buffs and debuffs that impact your hero, traps, weapons, stats, and the levels themselves. Environmental factors like weather and time of day further influence enemies and your defensive options. As these buffs and debuffs stack, choose to push forward against the growing hordes or return to your castle hub to power up your hero, weapons, and traps before facing a formidable Orc General in a brutal boss fight.

Experience enhanced combat where the combination of heroic prowess and ingenious traps leads to unparalleled orc destruction. Engage in tighter, more responsive third-person shooter and melee combat. Enjoy crazier physics-based interactions and more ridiculous ragdoll effects. Watch with joy as your traps hurl, crush, slice, and incinerate orcs in spectacular fashion.

Orcs Must Die! Deathtrap stays true to the beloved humor, personality, and charm of the series. From witty orc chatter to over-the-top physics sending screaming orcs flying, and a strong guitar- and drum-heavy soundtrack, every moment is crafted to keep your adrenaline pumping.

Feels weird not recommending an Orcs Must Die game. Everything seems geared for 4 players, even the single player campaign. OMD 1,2,3 are some of my favorite games. There haven't been any updates this year, and the game

Stay Away! The last update was summer 2025. The last posts on social media were summer 2025. The game feels very unfinished and I belive the company is dead.

Personally enjoyed the game and changes made to the series more than others have ; especially to do with the barricades. I played 90% multiplayer and completed it entirely. It does feel slightly incomplete which wasn't

PERFECT EXAMPLE of devs thinking they know best. Place sentinels where you want? No, here's dedicated slots on certain maps. Endless mode? No, here's "endurance" with 25 waves instead. Unlock traps, threads and potions
