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.

Steam Patch Notes
Official update history
It's been fantastic watching our community enjoy our latest update but we did notice some immediate bugs that we were able to find quick fixes for. So we're releasing a small hotfix today (1.1.2) to address those issues. We appreciate your continued support!
Bug Fixes
- Fixed several quicksave issues
- Fixed an issue where Bonelord Zadzik would not attack players after all enemies were killed.
- Fixed missing translated titles and descriptions.
- Improved Web Spinner VFX.
- Fixed an issue with Gabby playing the incorrect lines in certain instances.
- Fixed a multiplayer quicksave issue where players were getting the wrong heroes when joining a quicksave game in a different order.
We are listening to your feedback closely, and we see some players struggling with the level of difficulty, especially solo players. We have a hotfix ready for you that addresses some of your feedback.
Keep your feedback coming, we greatly appreciate it!
Let’s break down a few areas before the patch notes.
Barricades:
When we decided to change barricades to be a free trap with a fixed starting number, we had a few goals in mind. We wanted to design maps knowing the possible setups, help new players not spend too much coin on barricades and then need to rely on War Mage damage. And we wanted to ensure that we were giving experienced players interesting problems to solve with multiple solutions. It was never meant to limit creativity or prevent powerful trap boxes. BUT after listening to a lot of the feedback that came in today, we started with values that aren’t as fun for smaller groups. We do a lot of balance for solo: enemy scaling, more Rift Points, wave pacing, etc., but it doesn’t matter if you feel like you can’t control the map.
All that said, here is the change we can bring you today. Teams under 4 players will now start with more barricades. You’ll find the details below in the notes. This number is not a cap. It can still be increased in any team size with a number of Threads. This isn’t the end of the barricade conversation with you all. Although we feel strongly about how the new system fits within the unique gameplay loop of OMDD, we will continue listening and working with the players to make changes that will improve your orc-slaying experience.
Skulls:
We’re making some adjustments to the number of skulls needed to upgrade your traps and the skill tree. We did plenty of balance work, estimations, and iteration on these values, but we’re seeing that gambling forward is very appealing. Gambling forward and losing should still be fun, but we need to consider how often that’s happening because it affects your skull rewards. We’ve drastically reduced the total number of skulls needed to fully upgrade all traps and slightly reduced this value for the skill tree. We also hope this quicker progression makes the game more manageable, more quickly for solo players.
Patch 1.0.7
*IMPORTANT NOTE*: This patch is ready now (approximately 10:30pm US Eastern Tuesday / 4:30am CET Wednesday) for Steam and Epic Games Store. The Xbox patch build is processing and will go live as soon as it’s ready. Crossplay with Xbox will be unavailable during this window. Xbox and Windows players can still play together.
Gameplay changes:
- Starting Barricade Count Increased:
- Solo Players will start with 22 barricades (increased from 16)
- Duo Groups will start with and share 20 barricades (increased from 16)
- Trio Groups will start with and share 18 barricades (increased from 16)
- Quad Groups will start with and share 16 barricades (remains the same)
- Solo Players will start with 22 barricades (increased from 16)
- Trap and War Mage Upgrades will see decreased skull costs throughout the skill trees allowing for faster progression
- Improved Kalos melee attack advances
- Kalos can now target and advance to enemies from a further distance, meaning he will miss swings less often. While there’s more work to do on melee, we hope this improves his game feel.
- Unlocking Max made more obvious
- Playable Max is unlocked in the hub by collecting 5 shards. One of the shards has been moved lower no longer requiring a specific character ability to reach it. Go unlock Max. He’s got a great kit for orc killing!
Lobby List Filtering
- Players will no longer see lobbies of players with different build versions.
- Note, players running 1.0.6 may see lobbies of players with 1.0.7. In this scenario, you will get a “can’t connect” message. Please update the game.
Crash Fixes
- Crash occurring during login has been fixed
- Crash when pinging a dead player using the map has been fixed
