Shanghai, China — April 18, 2024 | It’s now been one whole year of Torchlight: Infinite! One year on from the global launch and 10,000+ Steam reviews later, this beloved ARPG is reinventing itself yet again as it combines dungeon-crawling with Cthulhu-esque horror in this latest and spookiest of updates.


Perfectly blending ARPG exploration, crafting and combat with horror is no easy feat, but XD Games has a few tricks up their sleeves. Players will now take on the role of detective, solving mysteries and striving to maintain their sanity as they explore the haunted city of Mistville. Players also have the chance to witness a new side of our beloved character Cateye Erika as she harnesses the power of Ember tech to transform into Lightning Shadow. But that’s not all, this new season also has a plethora of exciting new content to satisfy players’ thirst for adventure! From a new multiplayer mode to exclusive treasures, there’s plenty to explore in the Whispering Mists, just be sure not to lose yourself along the way.
