The hunt is back on, Hunters! XD Games has officially pulled back the curtain on the next major chapter for its hit ARPG. Titled SS12: Lunaria, this upcoming season is set to launch on April 16, 2026, bringing with it a cosmic overhaul of mechanics, a brand-new hero trait, and a massive celebration for the game’s third anniversary.
If you thought the Netherrealm was dangerous before, wait until you see what’s falling from the stars.
The Lunaria Mechanic: High-Stakes Farming
The core of SS12 revolves around the mysterious Lunar Stone Statues that have appeared across the Netherrealm. This isn’t just another loot drop; it’s a complete “farming loop” redesign.
- Lunar Rings: Players will use these special artefacts to awaken the statues.
- Lunari Creatures: Once awakened, you’ll face off against waves of Lunari enemies. Defeating them drops energy and loot, which in turn allows you to awaken even more powerful statues.
- Lunar Omens & Rhapsodies: To keep things unpredictable, random events like Lunar Radiance can trigger, spawning golden statues that offer significantly higher rewards for those who can survive the onslaught.
The “Creation Engine” and Modularisation
XD Games is leaning heavily into player agency this season. The introduction of the Creation Engine allows players to interact with machines guarded by Creation Sentries. By clearing these encounters, players can harvest Creation Crystals—a new way to target specific loot and customise the rewards they get from their grind.
New Hero Trait: Scent Weaver Sage
Build enthusiasts have a new toy to play with. The update introduces a new trait for Sage known as Liquorice Note.
This trait completely reworks how players interact with the Elixir (Potion) system. Instead of simple healing, the Scent Weaver utilises “Elixir Bottles” that can be customised with various ingredients to trigger offensive and defensive effects. It’s a modular combat system that turns your potion belt into a secondary weapon.
Third Anniversary Rewards: The Midas Touch
Because SS12 coincides with Torchlight: Infinite’s 3rd Anniversary, XD Games is going all out. Starting April 16, the Midas Touch event begins.
| Feature | Details |
| Limited Event | Complete objectives to earn draws on the anniversary spinner. |
| Prizes | Pactspirit Crystals, Jagged Primocrysts, and exclusive cosmetic rewards. |
| Grand Prize | A chance at this year’s Anniversary Commemorative Gold Note, a physical-inspired collectible designed by the dev team. |
Visual & Audio Overhaul
It wouldn’t be a new season without a fresh coat of paint. SS12 brings a total artistic redesign for fan-favourite heroes Thea (Wisdom of the Gods) and Erika (Wind Stalker). Additionally, the game’s classic theme melody has been rearranged into a grander soundscape to match the cosmic scale of the Lunaria update.
Pro Tip: Make sure to check your Divinity Slates and Talent Trees as soon as you log in; the UI has been streamlined for a “fresher look” and better navigation across PC and mobile.
Torchlight: Infinite SS12: Lunaria kicks off worldwide on April 16, 2026. Whether you’re a returning veteran or a new Hunter looking for that sweet, sweet loot, the Lunar cycle is waiting for you.
