Path of Exile 2: Here’s what we know so far about upcoming game’s release date and more
Path of Exile 2 was revealed at the 2019 ExileCon. Since then, developers Grinding Gear Games have shared information bit by bit, though much remains undisclosed.
The original game, akin to Diablo 2 and 3, was a top-down hack-and-slash adventure. Its sequel, seemingly a robust alternative to Diablo 4 or games like Lost Ark, aims to extend the boundaries.
In recent previews, the new character selection process unfolds, portraying your chosen hero as the lone survivor of a mass public hanging, encapsulating the series' trademark dark and despondent atmosphere. New environments, like a stage atop a colossal Mad Max-style vehicle, were showcased, hinting at an enhanced, yet equally captivating, gameplay experience.
A 2021 follow-up trailer delved deeper into the Vastiri Desert region, dungeons, and adversaries, though a definitive release date remains elusive.
Initially conceived as a standalone expansion, Path of Exile 2 has evolved into a true sequel, an independent entity boasting its own narrative and endgame activities.
The closed beta for Path of Exile 2 is scheduled for June 7, 2024. However, details about an open beta or the full release date remain undisclosed.
