Torchlight frontier Patch#
Previous Torchlight games were cheap, single-payment items that gave you a wholly contained experience (with the occasional patch and feature update). We’re also not sure how the game will be monetized. The game is currently in closed alpha, and although content updates are proceeding apace, there is still no confirmed release date as of the time of this writing.
While the overworld seems to be persistent, dungeons are procedurally generated just as they were in previous Torchlight games.Įchtra Games has given Torchlight Frontiers a 2019 release date, but so far it doesn’t seem on track to meeting that target. Trailers revealed Torchlight Frontiers a game that was definitely the same Torchlight aesthetic but with a massively expanded scope.įirst, the game is a true marriage of Torchlight’s classic ARPG gameplay and more typical MMORPG features such as a persistent town, quest givers, and crafting using materials found in the world. Echtra Games formed as an off-shoot of Runic in 2016 and started development of the ambitious project, finally giving an official announcement in August of 2018. Then Runic closed down in 2017 which made it seem like that MMO would never happen.īut the dream of Torchlight MMORPG never died-it just changed hands. The studio swapped focus to their new adventure game, Hob, leaving plans for a Torchlight MMO for later. Although critically successful and well-received by fans, Torchlight II’s steampunk and cartoonish nature didn’t quite steal as many Diablo fans as Runic would have liked.
