Path of Exile 2 Release Date: Announcement Coming Soon

2023 is a great year for action role-playing game (ARPG) fans, with the Diablo and Path of Exile (PoE) fandoms getting new titles. It has been 10 years since the release of Path of Exile, and we will likely get an official release date reveal for Path of Exile 2 during ExileCon 2023. The event takes place on 29th and 30th July and will feature not only PoE 2 content but also Q&A sessions, a competitive PoE event and more.

Path of Exile 2’s release date is likely to be announced during ExileCon 2023

We recommend checking out our ExileCon 2023 event coverage if you want to tune into the livestreams and get some Twitch drops in the process. Path of Exile 2 was first announced in 2019 and Grinding Gear Games has given us a release window of 2023 and we should get a confirmed release date during the event.

We will update this section as soon as an announcement is made.

What to expect from Path of Exile 2

Path of Exile 2 is a sequel to the popular action role-playing game Path of Exile. It was announced in 2019 and is currently in development by Grinding Gear Games. It is set in the same world as Path of Exile but it follows a different story in the Atlas of Worlds. 

The game will offer a new campaign, new skill trees and other content that players can delve into. Path of Exile 2 will feature a new skill system with over 190 new skills to choose from. These skills will be more powerful and versatile than the skills in Path of Exile according to the developers.

The endgame in Path of Exile 2 will also be different from what we are used to in the original Path of Exile. The game is expected to follow the same free-to-play model as its predecessor so you can play the game without spending a cent. 

You may be incentivized to purchase Stash Tabs as free-to-play players have a limited amount of inventory space and additional slots will cost you money. Outside of Stash Tabs, all of the purchases in Path of Exile are cosmetic-only and the same formula might carry over to Path of Exile 2.

With Path of Exile 2 coming to consoles, Grinding Gear Games might tap into a much bigger audience than what the original Path of Exile achieved. The game is expected to release in 2023 and it might prove to be a strong competitor to Diablo 4’s live service model.
