Torchlight III Spring Update Now Live!

Torchlight III

In Torchlight III, Novastraia is again under threat of invasion and it’s up to you to defend against the Netherim and its allies. Gather your wits and brave the frontier to find fame, glory, and new adventures!

A new class has just arrived to Torchlight III with the Spring Update! Anchored in a state between life and death, the Cursed Captain remains true to its adventurous spirit. [previewyoutube=ZjJGOGDfbHQ;full][/previewyoutube] As an experienced captain of the seas, this corporeal spectre can summon a ghostly crew of swashbucklers, and use the tools of the piracy trade to tackle combatants. The Cursed Captain utilizes their own unique resource, Doubloons, which are collected mid-combat from monsters and treasures. In addition to the Cursed Captain’s new class-specific weapon (the cannon), its attire also includes a new class-specific armor type - capes. “The Captain fully realizes an archetype of class not yet fulfilled - the Summoner. While some of the other classes do have the capacity to summon minions, the Captain is the first to dive deep into that mechanic. Cannoneers, Riflemen, standard Crewmates, and your First Mate all can join you in combat, should you include them in your build. As the captain of this crew, you have the power to command them! You can order the crew to relocate, perform extra skills on demand, or focus fire on a specific target using the Black Spot debuff. If leading a crew of undead seafarers is not to your liking, the Cursed Captain is also a powerhouse on their own, packing a wide array of cursed magic and explosive skills. Instead of paying Doubloons to your Crew, load them up into your trusty cannon and fire them with the Plunderbuss skill, or order your flagship to fire a deadly broadside onto your foes from afar... or, simply bring the flagship directly into the fight. Yes, I do mean the ENTIRE ship.” ADDITIONAL CONTENT & QUALITY OF LIFE UPDATES COMING… An abundance of adorable pets are making their way to the frontier. From the ‘Samurai Shiba Inu’ to the ferocious ‘Fire Fox’, the frontier’s collection of pets will grow with new, additional quality of life updates in tow. • FOUR NEW Species with over FOURTY NEW pets and pet variants! • Improvements to the Pet UI, including the ability to better manage, delete, and sort your pets. • More pet slots! • Resolved the bug that prevents pets from joining their owners while adventuring. There are also an assortment of other content and quality of life updates that will also be coming alongside this ‘Cursed Captain’ update, including an entirely new ‘Fur & Fashion’ contract with all new dyes, fort props, and pets. An instance reset feature is coming to Torchlight III. Players will now be able to reset any instance from any shared area (towns/forts) in order to restart all of the world’s instances. Now you can continue to farm in a particular area of the world without having to leave the entire game or wear out the instance reset timer. In addition to the new ‘Instance Reset’ feature, players will be able to entirely reset their Multiplayer or Singleplayer accounts in order to restart their game from scratch as an entirely fresh, new experience. We’ve also been hard at work to resolve many bugs (including that problematic, lingering Humble Quest log) and performance issues and believe we have made some great strides on both fronts. The Spring Update is now available on Steam. We hope you enjoy the Cursed Captain as much as we do!
