Available Content

- A level cap of Lv. 99 and 3 chapters of main quests to make reaching Lv. 50 an achievable goal;

[b]Potential Issues

[/b]

- 3 special traits are planned for every hero, however only 1 trait will be available for each hero during the closed beta;

- Although 3 chapters of the main questline are available, only the first 2 have completed stories.

During the closed beta, the third chapter is accessible without plot or dialog;

- While there exist the reuse of maps and monsters in Netherrealm stages, the affixs of each stage are actually different, so do the rewards;

- A completely free trading house may take time to stablize prices. Please be careful when trading items to other players to avoid unintentional losses;

- As this is the first large-scale test of Torchlight: Infinite, we may frequently change features, skill values, etc. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

We are currently completing final preparations for the closed beta and aim to open downloads at the expected date. We can't wait to hear about your experiences in-game and look forward to any feedback you may have. Please follow the Discord link below and join the Torchlight: Infinite community. Thank you!
