The tantalizing wait through Torchlight Frontiers’ development and testing continues, but one fan has made the waiting more bearable with a build calculator for the game’s existing three classes. It’s not the prettiest thing, but it is functional and offers a way to figure out your future character’s build in the here and now.
So when is Torchlight Frontiers actually releasing? There’s no date yet, although considering that the MMO is still in alpha testing, we’d assume the formerly projected 2019 release window is probably not going to happen at this point. In fact, back in August Echtra Games CEO Max Schafer said, “2019 was an early estimate. As you probably know, we’re better at making games than estimating dates, but the bottom line is the game will ship when it’s done. Shigeru Miyamoto once said, ‘A late game is only late until it ships. A bad game is bad until the end of time.’ We want to take the time to get it right, but we aren’t quite ready to update or change our release date.”
We recently deep-dived the game’s ongoing alpha in our Choose My Adventure column.
The community surrounding Torchlight Frontiers is full of brilliant ideas and talented people. Exhibit A: The awesome Skill Calculator that Papi made available for everyone to use at the Torchlight Fansite. Tinker to your heart’s content! 💖🐄🛠️https://t.co/oDHHnHjeWq
