The trailer also provides brief details on new pets, including a majestic winter owl. Torchlight players have come to expect new weapons and pets with every major update and this latest one seems packed full of appropriately-themed winter content.

A rework of The Forged class also will be introduced in this update. According to patch notes from the developer, the class will play much differently as to make it a more viable option for players. That includes new elements in the HUD and new skills.

Other noteworthy things being added in this update are some fort cosmetics. They give players the chance to personalize their forts as they see fit, which has gone over pretty well with the Torchlight community.

The game is still relatively young and has plenty of room to grow yet heading into 2021. Echtra Inc. has listened to what fans have complained about and they plan on doing more of the same. Bugs have been removed and the seasonal content keeps this game’s momentum going strong. Let’s see if they can keep it up.
