Torchlight Graduates Infancy, One Year Anniversary Sale

By Published October 27, 2010 at 3:21 pm

The smash-hit fusion between comedy, stunning visuals, and classic dungeon crawling grows to be one year old! Between reviewing the original game last year and checking out the upcoming Torchlight II at PAX this year, it may come as no surprise that the title has survived its first year in the treacherous gaming world. What might come as a surprise, though, is that Runic Games is promoting their baby's birthday with a 50% off sale on their website! The sale will be online for 48 hours, so be sure to jump on it; you need to be prepared for Torchlight II, that we can promise. The Torchlight team released the following statement:

 

Happy One Year Anniversary Torchlight!

Is it a birthday or an anniversary? Either! Both! It’s a reason to celebrate!

One year ago today we launched our debut title Torchlight. It was nerve-wracking and exciting, and the response was more than we could have hoped for. One year later, Torchlight won the GDC Best Debut Award, and everyone here is happily working on Torchlight II.

Thank you for your support and your enthusiasm. We are so grateful to be here today, making games we love.

For the next 48 hours, Torchlight is on a 50% sale, exclusive to our site!

Thank you all! Celebrate with us!

 

The sale can be found here.

Steve started GamersNexus back when it was just a cool name, and now it's grown into an expansive website with an overwhelming amount of features. He recalls his first difficult decision with GN's direction: "I didn't know whether or not I wanted 'Gamers' to have a possessive apostrophe -- I mean, grammatically it should, but I didn't like it in the name. It was ugly. I also had people who were typing apostrophes into the address bar - sigh. It made sense to just leave it as 'Gamers.'"

First world problems, Steve. First world problems.
