What is Torchlight II?

Torchlight II is a fantasy action RPG in which you choose one of four classes, explore Vilderan's overworld, towns, and randomized dungeons, fight monsters, and gather loot while trying to save the world. It supports solo play plus LAN and online co-op, while New Game Plus carries the same character into a harder campaign.

  • +you like solo or LAN cooperative dungeon crawling

What players say
