    Default Torchlight 2 Sells Over 2 Million Copies

    Runic Games has announced Torchlight 2 has sold over 2 million copies.

    The game released back in September 2012, though the milestone was passed last week during the Steam sale.

    Runic CEO Max Schaefer said, "We are overwhelmed by the reception for Torchlight 2. To hit this milestone is a testament not only to our dedicated development team, but also to the greatest, most positive gaming community I’ve ever seen.

    “I’d just like to say a big thank you to all the players who offered their suggestions on what we could improve, and who stuck with us and supported us during development. It wouldn’t have been possible without you, and we’re humbled and grateful at your response."

    Since releasing in 2009, the original Torchlight has sold over a million copies, meaning the franchise has lifetime sales of over 3 million.

    I love the work these guys are doing. It seems that their hard work is really paying of.
    What would be awesome to see next is some Brand Spanking new IP from them.

    well done! i know that the whole Torchlight series was planned as development funds for an MMO. thankfully they have been good enough to warrant a purchase each! i dont think Runic should worry too much about their MMO and rather give us another kickass Torchlight game!

    I'm not sure that they are. They said when they released TL2 that they might be considering it, but they will probably release an expansion or two first. These guys actually listen to their customers, so they would rather do a TL3 than a TL MMO if the customers would prefer that.

    I've bought multiple copies of this game and kept them in my Steam inventory, it is such an epic game!
    When an anti-piracy method is affecting the game for people who legitimately bought it and causing other people not to buy the game, there is obviously something wrong with it!

    MMO is a pretty broad term. It really isn't a giant leap from what it currently is to MMO. You can pretty much keep torhclight as is, but make playing with other people more seamless. MMO also don;t mean you have to play with other people, most cater for people playing on their own.
