Torchlight launches today!

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

Torchlight, a fresh new Action RPG franchise developed by Runic Games and using OGRE for rendering, is launching today! Torchlight has been developed in Seattle by a veteran team composed of the designers and leads of projects like Diablo, Diablo II, Mythos, and Fate.

The single player game launches today, with an MMO version planned for 2010. Having played the single player game, it’s immediately obvious that it was designed by a team of veterans of the genre; it’s highly polished and a lot of fun to play, and we’re very proud that OGRE has been a part of creating this title.

Torchlight is available to purchase as a digital download from Perfect World, Steam, Direct2Drive and other partners. Go get it!
