Runic Games to release Torchlight October 27

torchlight

Runic Games has announced that Torchlight, its action RPG with randomly generated levels, will hit October 27 via digital download.

The single-player game has three classes to choose from – the Destroyer, Vanquisher and Alchemist- and an interesting sounding retirement option for maxed out characters to hand over benefits for newly created ones.

Those who want to play online, can do so eventually when Tochlight’s online multiplayer version is released at a later date.

Runic is comprised of developers who worked on Diablo, Diablo II, the Lord of Destruction expansion and Mythos, so it should be an interesting title.

Full press release is through the break with the teaser video shown at PAX.
