Torchlight: Infinite preview – can it hold a Torch to its predecessors?

Having spent plenty of time playing Torchlight II back in the day, I was naturally very excited to get my paws on beta access to Torchlight: Infinite, the upcoming entry into the series. With its flashy graphics and new twists on the traditional isometric, action role-playing dungeon crawler, I had high hopes that it would scratch the itch that I had almost forgotten existed (and one that Torchlight III couldn’t quite reach). Well, I’m pleased to say, Torchlight Infinite hasn’t disappointed me so far.

Set 200 years after the events of Torchlight II, Torchlight: Infinite plunges you into a prosperous era of tech, which is embodied through the vivid characters and high-tech equipment and enemies you encounter. Like the previous Torchlight games, the focus is put on fast-paced combat and flexible hero-building, as well as a myriad of unique pets to assist you in battle.

I picked up the beta for Android, and found the mobile combat to be quite similar to Wild Rift. It’s easy to pick up, with the standard joystick at the bottom-left of the screen, and your abilities on the right. Early in the game, there’s a satisfying feeling of power provided by your explosive magic attacks, which only grow alongside you as you delve deeper.
