Torchlight: Infinite opens up closed beta sign ups

China-based developer and publisher XD Inc has just opened up registrations for the closed beta test for Torchlight: Infinite. Users of both Android and iOS platforms can now put in their names to try out the game before it goes live.

As previously reported, Torchlight: Infinite takes place 200 years after Torchlight 2, where humans have resorted to Ember to power their machinery and magic. Ember’s corrupting influence is starting to wreck havoc on everyone who relies on it. It is a free to play title, with microtransactions limited to strictly cosmetics.

It promises “24 unique skill trees” with 180+ skills across four heroes to start. More are to come, each able to be optimized to suit any playstyle. The dungeons and loot sound procedurally generated, taking you anywhere between Lakhouma Desert to the Abyssal Spine, fighting against Netherim and Shadowborn the entire way.

Past blog posts have talked about how open-ended hero building is core to the game, with future updates detailing how the system will work. With “Active” and “Support” skills, you’re meant to be able to customize, to the finest details, how your base skill will work. “Empowering creativity,” in a game with its titular “infinite” possibilities.

As mentioned at the start, you can now sign up for the closed beta test via the official website. More details on the game can be looked up via dev blogs on TapTap.
