Path of Exile 2: Mark Your Calendars!
Path of Exile 2 will be entering early access on December 11th and will be completely free-to-play.

A glimpse of the intense combat that awaits players in Path of Exile 2.
New Class Incoming: Meet the Duelist!
Alongside the release, Path of Exile 2 will introduce a brand-new class: the Duelist. This marks the first character wielding a sword in the franchise and is designed with an aggressive combat style, also capable of using shields. The Duelist promises to bring a fresh approach to Wraeclast’s already diverse roster of characters.
The Road Ahead: Full Release on the Horizon
While the early access launch is just around the corner, the full 1.0 version of Path of Exile 2 is still in development. Developers previously mentioned a target release window sometime after this year’s ExileCon event. The team is committed to delivering a polished and complete experience for all players.
Early Access Success: A Testament to Quality
The early access period has already seen tremendous success, particularly on PlayStation and Xbox platforms, with reports of long queues and massive player engagement. Robert Purchese from Eurogamer praised the high quality of the early access build in his review, highlighting its Souls-like combat system as a key differentiator from other action RPGs. This is a game you won’t want to miss!
