Torchlight II is the sequel to the wildly popular (and successful) action-RPG, Torchlight. The sequel brings the often requested multi-player co-op feature, through peer-to-peer multiplayer support. Torchlight II will feature randomly-generated dungeons for the player to explore, and numerous types of monsters to fight for experience and loot.
Torchlight II maintains the same basic gameplay as its predecessor, but features overland areas with multiple hub towns, and a longer campaign. Other new features include time of day cycles, weather effects, and a redesigned user interface. Players will be able to customize character appearance with choice of gender, face, and hair style.. Additionally, several elements from the first game will be returning, such as pets, fishing, and a retirement system.
The game now includes four character classes: the Engineer (heavy melee fighter who uses ember-powered steampunk technology); the Outlander (a wandering nomad who uses ranged weapons and "low magic"); the Berserker (quick attacks and animal-themed special powers); the Embermage (a highly trained spell-casting class with elemental attacks).
