It was the first game in the series to do so, and this genre is at its best when you are able to play and share the experience with others. Torchlight 2 supports cooperative multiplayer for up to 6 players as well. The procedural generation stays fresh, and loot is paced out really well to make late-game finds just as satisfying as early game ones.


Once you beat the story, which should already take you about 20 hours, you'll feel compelled to return just because of how simple but fun it is to play and might double or triple that playtime.

The classes, especially the Engineer, also stand out from other RPGs that fall into the same Dungeons & Dragons inspired classes. While the gameplay is fairly standard for the genre, combat remains super satisfying even though it's easy to pick up. From there, players can venture through many procedurally generated dungeons, fighting hordes of enemies and collecting awesome loot along the way. Players control one of four unique classes - Engineer, Outlander, Berserker, and Embermage - and go on a journey to defeat The Alchemist, who has been corrupted by an evil entity called the Ember Blight. It built upon the Diablo-like dungeon-crawling formula of the first game and nearly perfected it. The game finally came to consoles in 2019. Torchlight II was first released by Runic Games back in 2012 as a follow up to a promising 2009 RPG. This is one of the best free Epic Games Store titles of the Christmas season yet, especially if you love dungeon-crawler RPGs like Diablo, so you should act fast. The free game for December 30 is Torchlight II starting at 11 a.m., but that price tag will disappear exactly 24 hours later. The storefront from Fortnite's creators has been doing this for over a week and has given away some fantastic games like Alien Isolationand Darkest Dungeon. The Epic Games Store is giving one free game away each day this December.
