Runic Games has announced that Torchlight will be available to download through Steam when the game launches on Oct. 27. This is good news for excited fans because Steam originally wasn't going to have access to Torchlight until 30 days after its release.

"It's important for us to make Torchlight as widely available as possible. Steam is an enormous outlet that many players use exclusively – we're big fans ourselves – so we are really happy that it will be on Steam starting day one," CEO Max Schaefer said. Torchlight will also be available for download on the game's official site on Oct. 27.
