Anticipated dungeon crawler Torchlight 2 (http://joystiq.com/game/torchlight-2) has a minor update to its launch window, with Runic telling RunicGamesFanSite.com (http://www.runicgamesfansite.com/showwiki.php?title=Torchlight+II+FAQ) that the title is expected to launch during November or December ... unless "someone on the team dies." That's a far more calamitous caveat compared to what Runic told us when we checked in with the studio a couple weeks ago.

"We're still definitely on track for 2011, but have to hit all our internal milestones before we can lock in a date," Runic community maven Wonder Russell told Joystiq. "With a team this small, if one of our three programmers gets the flu, we could be screwed."

Torchlight fans should be sewing pillow suits of armor and force-feeding the devs their Flintstone vitamins, just to make sure that the $20 co-op dungeon crawler (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/08/26/torchlight-2-priced-at-20-final-class-revealed/) makes it out this year.
