Why you might like it

  • Grinding Gear Games' ambitious standalone sequel to Path of Exile, rebuilding the acclaimed ARPG's deep skill-gem and passive-tree systems with heavier, more deliberate combat and a fresh six-act campaign.
  • GGG has maintained a genuinely active Early Access cadence since the December 2024 launch — major content patches have landed roughly every four months (0.2 in April 2025, 0.3 in August, 0.4 in December 2025), and a final Early Access patch (0.5.0) is planned before the 1.0 launch.
  • True to the studio's 'Ethical Microtransactions' philosophy from the original game, the full 1.0 release is planned to be entirely free-to-play with real money limited to cosmetics and stash-tab conveniences — no pay-for-power systems.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • This is still Early Access as of mid-2026 — the current build has fewer than the planned twelve character classes and doesn't yet include the full six-act campaign, so expect an incomplete experience relative to the eventual 1.0 release.
  • GGG has confirmed a target of reaching 1.0 by the end of 2026, tied to their ExileCon event in November, but has not published an exact launch date — treat any specific date circulating online as unconfirmed until GGG says so directly.
  • As with the original Path of Exile, this is a genuinely hardcore, systems-deep ARPG — newcomers looking for a simpler loot-and-slash experience may find the skill-gem and passive-tree complexity overwhelming at first.
