Excitement surrounding the upcoming release of Planescape: Torment is incredibly high in our forums, and according to a tweet by Beamdog President Trent Oster the wait is (almost) over. It’s also apparently their most polished release yet, which says a lot as their ports of the Baldur’s Gate games were pretty great. A trailer for Planescape: Torment was released late last month, which is totally worth a look if you’ve never heard of this game before:

Planescape: Torment is available for pre-purchase on Steam with an unlock time of 2:00 PM Pacific today. App Store releases (specifically the time of release) can be pretty unpredictable, but we’ll keep our eyes peeled for whenever it pops up on the App Store today. Early reviews of the game seem very positive, so, this definitely seems like an RPG worth paying attention to.

UPDATE: The game just hit the App Store, Planescape: Torment Enhanced Edition ($9.99) is available now as a universal app for $9.99. We’ve got a forum thread which hopefully will get some first impressions in it soon.
