Those amongst you counting down the days until Torchlight 2‘s release will now have something else to make the wait that much longer. Runic Games confirmed to Joystiq that Torchlight 2 will offer full, free mod support, as well as multiplayer mod support. Fear not though, because it was also noted that players will be able to search for multiplayer games with or without mods, and XP gained in all games (mods or not) will stay with your character.

Lastly, Runic mentioned that all item drops are client specific, so only you can see that uber powerful weapon flashing on your screen. Surely this will make loot hunting easier, no?

So, full, free mod support and XP across all game types – I’d say that’s more than enough to be excited for Torchlight 2, but of course we wanna hear from YOU. Does Torchlight 2 already have a spot in your gaming library?
