Torchlight II Website Relaunched

Runic Games has graced us with a fully renovated version of the Torchlight II website, and while there doesn’t appear to be any new information available (aside from a list of armor set design contest winners), the new format definitely makes it easier to browse through the four character classes, have a look at some new creatures, read up on a few new environs, familiarize yourself with new weaponry, and check up on the latest media available for the soon-to-be-released game. You know, now that I look at them closer, these two armor sets sound pretty damn sweet:

The Crystalform Guard set focused on a huge element of the Torchlight world, Ember, and it’s no small feat to make a crystal armor set actually look good. This set is designed in a way that we can basically plug it into the lineup because it nailed so many of our style guidelines. Having the flexibility to make sets with different colored Ember crystals is a nice bonus as well. Well done.

The Bhal’Ashir set, while targeted at the Outlander class, actually makes a great mid-level multi-class set of armor. It falls in place really well between each classes’ starter gear and our Colonist Line of armors. While we did need to simplify and embolden some design elements, the vibe and flavor of the design really appealed to people and fits into the game incredibly well. And really, who doesn’t want that hat? Nice work.
