Quick answers

Is Magicka co-op?
Yes, Magicka supports co-op.
Does Magicka have PvP?
Steam does not list PvP for Magicka.
Do we both need to own Magicka to play together?
Not always. Magicka supports Steam Remote Play Together: one person who owns it hosts and streams a local session to friends who don't (Steam quotes up to four players, more on a fast connection). For online co-op or PvP, every player needs their own copy.
How many people play Magicka?
About 18 players were in-game when this page's data was last refreshed (2026-09-09).
Does Magicka have split-screen or local multiplayer?
Yes. Steam lists Magicka with shared/split-screen play on one PC — and it supports Remote Play Together, so a friend can join that local session over the internet.
