XD Games is thrilled to announce that Torchlight: Infinite’s latest season, SS14 Tartarus, is now live worldwide on PC and mobile devices.
Watch the Torchlight: Infinite SS14 Tartarus Season Preview below:
This latest season introduces the Tartarus game mode, which sees players managing a prison in the Netherrealm. This new mode features three different phases, beginning with players tracking down and defeating escaped prisoners in order to collect their nameplates.
Then, players take charge of a circular prison with 16 available cells. There, they’ll be able to house inmates and arrange strategic fights between prisoners or against fearsome beasts — elephants, lions, wolves, and rats — to hone their skills.
After 20 turns of building, players move to the final phase and the resulting roster of inmates become enemies and bosses for players to face in a new combat challenge that plays out across three prison levels and six levels of difficulty, earning rewards corresponding to the quality and quantity of enemies defeated.
SS14 also introduces a new Hero Trait: Spacetime Witness Youga. This introduces a new playstyle for the character built around maintaining a continuous spellcasting cycle.
Spacetime Witness Youga’s Clockwork Core that can cast Entanglement skills automatically, while his critical strikes can reduce his ability cooldowns.
Plus, this new Hero Trait offers three distinct development paths — Spacetime Dictator, Spacetime Conqueror, and Spacetime Dominator — and players have the freedom to shape their own Spacetime build by choosing either to combine elements from each path, or to specialise fully into one.
Spacetime Dictator focuses on projectiles and time manipulation, Spacetime Conqueror instead focuses on movement and linked damage from Time-Rift Traversal, while the Spacetime Dominator path focuses on building up spell enhancements via Spacetime Overload.
