Torchlight: Infinite launches Sandlord update with new character Thea, limited-time events, and a $250,000 cash prize pool

A week after its initial tease, the latest update for Torchlight: Infinite has arrived, ushering in the Sandlord season to the ARPG. This update introduces new mechanics that encourage players to build and expand their empire within the Cloud Oasis, aiming to maximize their loot. Whether you're a seasoned player or new to the game, now's the perfect time to gather resources and put your skills to the test in newly introduced regions.

In the Netherrealm, players can earn valuable resources by defeating enemies. These resources can be used to unlock bonuses, establish trade routes, and reap economic rewards across five distinct professions. This adds a strategic layer to the gameplay, allowing players to tailor their empire-building approach.

Joining the update is the corrupted divine channeler Thea, who brings a powerful Desecration skill to the table. Ideal for players who favor damage-over-time strategies, Thea's addition underscores the game's commitment to diverse combat tactics. As the saying goes, sometimes being on the Dark Side comes with its own perks—like cookies, perhaps?

The Deep Space region has undergone a significant overhaul, introducing a new reward modifier item called Probes that can enhance your rewards. However, with greater rewards come greater challenges; monsters here are now tougher and more dangerous, demanding players to sharpen their strategic skills to survive each run.

Alongside these updates, new Legendary Stages and the Sea of Rites have been added. In the Sea of Rites, players can take down non-aggressive Goblins for a chance to summon a secret boss. And don't miss out on the Sands of Fortune event, running until May 1st, which offers players the opportunity to complete new tasks for a chance to win from a $250,000 cash prize pool.
