The quests all have accompanying voice acting, which makes the game feel more alive. Overall the Diablo meets WoW-esque style of the game still looks good after nearly seven years and the Switch handles everything on screen well, be it in docked mode or while playing handheld. The different areas are well dressed and there are a lot of nooks and crannies to explore. There is a bit of gore here and there, but overall the game is somewhat PG friendly in what it does. You’ll be treated to many softer colors, making things very pleasant to the eyes. It’s unsure if anything has been done to enhance the graphics, but the comic-like style of everything in the world of Torchlight II makes a few botched details rather forgivable. The graphical quality of Torchlight II is still decent after all these years. It’s pretty much a revamped version of the Diablo II story but in its own original Torchlight style. You’ll get to see a few cutscenes in-between the different acts and that’s about it.

This is pretty much the main theme of the game and there is not that much extra to explore story-wise.

In Torchlight II you’ll be chasing the Alchemist, who was the protagonist of the first game, while he undoes all the good he has done. Now, seven years later, the game is released on all major console platforms, and we were lucky enough to take a look at the Switch version. Nonetheless, the freedom to fully create your character as you like by investing stat and skill points as you see fit allowed for a proper amount of freedom making sure you could experiment and create several different builds.

The developers seemingly got too inspired with some of the content of the newest installment of Diablo, where some bosses etc seemed a bit too ‘similar’ to one another. Back in 2012 we had our first run-in with Torchlight II, which we concluded was somewhat of a mix between Diablo II and Diablo III.
