Well, it's been out for about a year and a half. And I found some figures from May 2010 when it sold over 500,000 copies: http://www.joystiq.com/2010/05/18/torchlight-sales-surpass-500-000-units/ Not bad for a DRM free title. |
Well, the team behind it got a looot of goodwill and great word of mouth due to their involvement with Mythos (a game that sadly never left beta stage) so pretty much there was a good chunk of people waiting to play whatever Runic released.
