Well-regarded porting studio Panic Button is poised to give two Runic Games classics – Torchlight 2 and Hob – a new home on consoles later this year, with the latter title coming to Switch on April 4th.
It’s a somewhat bitter-sweet announcement, given that developer Runic Games was sadly shut down by owner Perfect World in 2017, but it’s wonderful that a whole new audience will be able to enjoy the studio’s brilliant games this year.
And Torchlight 2, an action-RPG with dungeon-crawler elements, really is a delight, having received much acclaim when it launched on PC in 2012.
