Follow us @ArcGames and check out the #iiishowcase April 10th, 10am PDT for a new Hyper Light Breaker trailer! Follow us on Social Media: Facebook.com/ArcGames Youtube.com/@ArcGames Torchlight III Spring Update Now Live!May 25, 2021 - Community AnnouncementsA 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. 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.

The winter has been cold and long, but the frontier is starting to warm up; we are getting ready for summer and wanted to update you on all things Torchlight III. SNOW & STEAM CONTRACT Winter is coming to an end and with spring just around the corner, it’s time to let the Snow & Steam contract thaw out and evaporate. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36687164/99b9257efe88b9373a2d0f736aa46f5b0b5dee27.png What was your favorite reward from the Snow & Steam contract?

We will be preparing an additional set of hotfixes after this batch is released to consoles and we are still busy working on a larger content update (with additional quality of life improvements) that will be released when it's ready.

Sometimes the best possible way to look to the future of a project, is to understand its past. While the next Developer Update will take a deeper dive into upcoming updates, ongoing issues, and other community feedback, this blog is for those who enjoy a good technical read and want a closer look at some of our internal development ‘war stories’. INTRODUCTION In game development, not every problem that you solve is performance, features, or functionality that the players get to see. Sometimes, you have something messy that needs to be fixed, and you just need to dive in and fix it so that work can get done. There is a phrase that we use to talk about this sort of work: “yak shaving”. Originally from a reference to the TV program “Ren and Stimpy”, it now refers to work that appears to be completely unrelated to the end goal, but which you have to accomplish in order to reach it. For example - “I am trying to build a stone bridge over this creek. I am shaving this yak so that I can trade the fur to a yarn maker, who in exchange will let me borrow the cart so that I can take it to the quarry to pick up some stones.” Shaving the yak isn’t necessarily an important part of building that bridge, but you won’t be able to make any progress while the yak still has its coat! This is a collection of just some of the times that we’ve had yak-shaving problems that needed to be “just fixed”. - Echtra Bean Read the entire blog at https://www.torchlight3.com/en/news-article/11482053 https://i.imgur.com/t6adtQ0.pngSteam Minor Data Patch - December 17th, 2020Dec 17, 2020 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36687164/a0cc572dd81d7e85d4fe1f87b675d1ea8eed0721.pngCheck out our Discord, Facebook, Twitter, and Twitch to get the latest development news and updates. https://i.imgur.com/t6adtQ0.png Hello Brall Brawlers! This morning we have a quick data (content) fix that will resolve a few issues currently persisting in the Snow & Steam update. This patch will not require an update and will be available in-game to all platforms as soon as we’ve pushed it. We are reviewing the recent feedback and are reviewing and gathering bug reports for upcoming hotfixes/updates. We are aware of some ongoing server crashes that manifest as disconnections while traveling. We hope to push out a server-side hotfix next week that will help resolve these issues that should be available to all platforms. We hope you have been enjoying the recent updates to the frontier and we’ll be back with more update-related news soon! - Echtra Bean Read all of the patch notes at: https://www.torchlight3.com/en/news-article/11482123 https://i.imgur.com/t6adtQ0.png‘Snow & Steam’ Update - December 15th, 2020Dec 15, 2020 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36687164/f3c510fb319f7efa4fbe2f090381322874aa598b.png Check out our Discord, Facebook, Twitter, and Twitch to get the latest development news and updates. https://i.imgur.com/t6adtQ0.png Happy Holidays Torchlight friends! We hope you are keeping warm this winter season (or cool, for those in the southern hemisphere)! We are so excited to finally bring you the ‘Snow & Steam’ update, which is full of feedback, suggestions, bug fixes, and improvements that we know you have all been waiting for! This spicy update is sending chills down my spine... With a complete revamp for Forged and Fazeer, a whole new limited-time contract, and a slew of amazing new features and quality-of-life updates, this patch has something for everyone. This update will come alongside a forced respec, so please remember to spend your points before you dive back into the frontier after updating to ‘Snow & Steam’. WINTER THEMED CONTRACT, PETS, & FORT DECORATIONS {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36687164/99b9257efe88b9373a2d0f736aa46f5b0b5dee27.png This Holiday tree will bring some festive feelings into your snow-covered forts! We’ve added a new, limited-time, ‘Snow & Steam’ Contract with a large assortment of winter-themed pets and fort decorations! Among the list of items that can be obtained are snow based decorations for your fort, an Ugly Sweater Cat variant, and an assortment of consumable and currency based rewards. During this update, the recently added spooky pets will become unavailable to find on the frontier, but may return again after the ‘Snow & Steam’ season has passed. You can view a list of all the newly added winter-themed fort decorations and pets down below in the detailed patch notes. FORGED REWORK {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36687164/7b4017a928845f68db99ae32066a19cc98a49a67.png Steam raises Movement speed and is spent on Basic Attacks and some skills. The Forged class has received a major rework in this update. Not only will you notice new elements for the HUD, but several skills have been changed and the general approach for Forged has received a bit of a makeover to make it a more interesting and viable class. “After reviewing feedback in Discord and our internal metrics, it was pretty clear that Forged was our least popular character.” Torchlight III Game Designer Michael May explained, “All the feedback, alongside our player data, painted a picture that showed us that the Forged low level skills felt solid, but the secondary higher level skills were lackluster.” The team went back to the drawing board, reviewing the current mechanics and skills and how to improve the overall feel of the class. “Skills like Slug Shot, Uppercut, and the ‘half venters’ didn’t have a strong place in the Forged’s overall kit like we had hoped, and players often just use a Heat builder, a Vent skill (possibly both), and fill the rest with Relic skills.” With a new HUD and mechanic designed based on increased movement speed, the team reworked several skills in order to accommodate...“Snow & Steam” Update PreviewNov 25, 2020 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36687164/cc0dd5686598eb969cad5f73fff6851f1d22b652.png Check out our Discord, Facebook, Twitter, and Twitch to get the latest development news and updates. https://i.imgur.com/t6adtQ0.png Happy Wednesday Yapper slappers!

We are proud of the game we have created as we know we have provided countless smiles and hours of entertainment for many of those who have wandered into the frontier. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36687164/9371bbaf9fca94d99cfbcacee394ab8b01e820c9.png Max toasts the launch of the game while preparing to eat alpaca butt. And while we are delighted with what our team has accomplished, we have recently taken a step back to look at the launch and development of Torchlight III. Our internal teams have created thoughtful, but sometimes difficult post-mortems that will help guide us with future updates for Torchlight III. We understand that while many believe Torchlight III to be a great game, there are parts of it that have received critical, but fair feedback; we recognize that there is work to be done in several areas of the game to bring it up to a more polished level. We won’t be able to completely placate all of the critiques in one patch, but as we move forward we are working on ways to simplify and better our internal process so that we can make better decisions for the community, the game, and for ourselves as a team. In this Developer Update, we discuss the launch of Torchlight III, the recent 'Gear 'N' Goblins' patch, current community concerns, and reveal details about the upcoming 'Snow & Steam' update. - Echtra Bean Read the entire blog at https://www.torchlight3.com/en/news-article/11481183 https://i.imgur.com/t6adtQ0.pngMinor Patch - November 4th, 2020Nov 5, 2020 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36687164/c0d8df4e72b5900c7ee0f51b4810c4674ba9f5be.png Check out our Discord, Facebook, Twitter, and Twitch to get the latest development news and updates. https://i.imgur.com/t6adtQ0.png This hotfix originally occurred yesterday, but we missed posting the breadcrumb to Steam.

Additionally we are fixing both spooky pets so they will start to drop now (as intended) and the Contracts that were accidentally replaced with older, incorrect data. We are currently reviewing other critical issues and are compiling reported bugs and known issues for another larger, upcoming update. Please continue to report bugs to http://tl3feedback.echtragames.com and to [email protected] so that we can further investigate and address them as time/priority permits - we really, really appreciate it!

One is “This should be fun.” The other is “Let’s make it interesting.” I couldn’t help but hear both as the ignored voice of a quiet developer at the back of a Torchlight III planning meeting. Torchlight III feels an awful lot like what it is: a free-to-play multiplayer game that thought better of itself, and decided to become a proper full-price microtransaction-free primarily solo release. If I didn’t already know the path it had taken, I’d have spent my entire time playing the game being gnawed at by wondering just what it was that made it all feel so off.
