Orcs Must Die! Unchained entering Open Beta Release 1.6 this December.


After a brief hiatus from updates, Orcs Must Die! Unchained is about to make a triumphant return with Open Beta Release 1.6, available to players in December. Players interested in getting a first look at this massive new update may tune into OrcsMustDie.tv on Friday November 18th at 6:00pm CT. Robot Entertainment will host a special episode of their "Orcs After Dark" live show in which the game's developers will walk viewers through all of the new features. Robot Entertainment has made sweeping changes to the game, bringing back the classic Orcs Must Die! feeling that players have been longing for.

  • Faster and More Furious - Faster hero speeds, squishier minions, bigger physics - the classic OMD feeling has never looked and felt quite so glorious.
  • Every Hero Rebuilt for Survival - Never again will players fear that their favorite hero can't keep up in Survival Mode. Every single hero in the game has been rebalanced for Survival, giving players tons of hero combination options.
  • All New Map Structure - There's a whole new way to play through your favorite Battlegrounds in OMDU's new difficulty tiers. Players must prove their worth before moving up to the next big challenge.
  • Brand New Prologue -All new players will start with a brief campaign to get them started with all of the OMD knowledge they'll need to bust heads in the Survival Battlegrounds.
  • A trove of treasures awaits players at all levels, including an overhauled game lobby, new ways to earn and upgrade traps, revised daily login rewards, tons more minions, and the return of Mr. Moneybags.
