After being in early access for about four months, Torchlight III released version 1.0 last month on October 13. It is still getting regular updates, with bug fixes, balance changes, and some new content to improve the overall feel of the game.
Players can expect to beat Torchlight III in around 20-25 hours, but there is still a lot to do after defeating the final boss. Here are the best things to do after beating the game.
Best Things To Do After Beating the Game in Torchlight 3
Play as a different class – this one might be obvious, but players should try a different class in a new playthrough. Each class has a unique style of play, so trying a new one can be exciting. It helps that maps are randomly generated as well, meaning that no two games are alike. Also, as items can be shared by characters on a single account, players have likely amassed some unique weapons and armor that their current class cannot use. Upon switching to the relevant class, they will be able to try out the new gear once they reach the appropriate level.
There is also the relic system, which basically acts as a secondary class. Players can and should try out a different relic as well on a new character.
Play on a harder difficulty – after making their way through all three acts of Torchlight III, players have probably learned a lot about how the different systems of Torchlight III interact with each other. They’ve learned how to make an effective build, or at least they have figured out what not to do. They’ve learned enemy behavior, and they’ve learned how bosses work. Now, players should try playing the game on a higher difficulty. It offers more of a challenge, but also there are in-game benefits to doing so, such as increasing gear or potion luck. It also gives the player more options should they decide to play the game in multiplayer.
Try out the endgame content – There is an endgame component that players can access once they beat the game. It is an endless dungeon that takes the style of a TV game show hosted by Fazeer Shah, who is a djinni (genie) first appearing in Torchlight II. He calls this endless dungeon Fazeer’s Dun’djinn. The way it works is that players will choose a challenge level, and they will be presented with three cards. Each card contains modifiers for the dungeon, one negative and one positive. Players then choose whichever card suits them best, and then battle through the dungeon with those modifiers in place. The dungeon features special high-end gear the player can obtain.
The great thing about Fazeer’s Dun’djinn is that it was built with expansion in mind. The developers can add more types of cards in future updates, which gives the players more options and new challenges. This mode will only improve with time, and in fact, a new card was just added for the Halloween update.
Torchlight III is available now on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
