Steam users, rejoice! No more waiting for Torchlight: Runic Games Inc, developer of the-Action RPG Torchlight, is thrilled to announce their new agreement with Steam, allowing players to download Torchlight on the first day it’s available, October 27th.
Previously, and as formerly announced at PAX, Torchlight would be in limited release through the official site www.torchlightgame.com on October 27, with download capability on Steam only available 30 days later.
“It’s important for us to make Torchlight as widely available as possible. Steam is an enormous outlet that many players use exclusively – we’re big fans ourselves – so we are really happy that it will be on Steam starting day one,” says CEO Max Schaefer.
Torchlight will be available for digital download on October 27th, through Steam and www.torchlightgame.com.
Now to add to this excitement, I have been invited to test the code starting October 20th and will have my own review of the game to coincide with the launch. And if that is not enough for you and you want more information on this game, the developers of this game will be sitting down with me on Geeky Pleasures on Party 934 | 102.5 FM Hudson Valley NY, Friday October 30 at 9pm PT / Midnight ET to answer all your questions and to geek out.
