VG 247 - Info on Torchlight Frontiers:
https://www.vg247.com/2018/08/09/torchlight-frontiers-action-rpg-shared-world-announced/

Echtra Games will be working on this Torchlight Frontiers game.
Echtra is comprised of numerous ex-Runic dev's [such as Max Shaefer (from Blizzard's Diablo 1+2 fame)] that worked on Torchlight 1 & 2.
Torchlight Frontiers is going to be a "shared-world" ARPG - so it'll likely be online-only / MMO.

I forgot this was being made.

Well, it's finally on Steam so it will get the exposure it needs and rightly deserves.

Got access to the Torchlight III Alpha since I was already registered on Arc Games so I'll give it a whirl but it is in its early stages after the official transition from Frontiers.
