Torchlight II Sold Over 2 Million Copies

Last time we heard word of it Torchlight II had sold "only" 1 million copies, but it looks like the game has sold quite a few more since then, at least according to this recent tweet from Runic Games (the developers of the title):
Over two million copies of #Torchlight2 sold since our launch last September. It's all thanks to YOU, our awesome community!
While Steam sales are likely going to have played a part in that, congratulations are still in order for the team at Runic! Hopefully the game will still be supported for a long time.

UPDATE: Here's the official press release:
