Here’s What’s Been Happening in Path of Exile 2

It's been a little more than 10 weeks since Path of Exile 2 was released in Early Access. Since then there's been a total of eight patches released along with 31 hotfixes. Each one of these introduced different improvements, bug fixes, and incremental improvements to the game's sound, art, effects and environments.

Developer Grinding Gear Games shared in a post that there are a lot of things that players have found annoying or even time consuming. One of the main issues appears to be the ability to teleport around the map with checkpoints. Another one is overwriting items in sockets. Whether big or small issues, the studio assured everyone that they're doing what they can "to address them one by one."

The studio also revealed that there are other big problems happening in the game. These are, aside from crashes, issues that can be solved by releasing a major update. These issues include:

• Major balance issues with many player skills / builds, both too high and too low.

• Not enough character build options including build defining uniques.

• Endgame progression balance is off.

• Not enough cool things to find in the endgame.

While these issues do exist, these are part of the early development process. Fortunately the players are there to help with feedback and improve the game further. Hopefully, all of these are going to be fixed before the game officially comes out.

Path of Exile 2 is a free-to-play dynamic title that elevates the action RPG genre to the next level. It’s set years after the original Path of Exile, with players returning to the dark world of Wraeclast and seeking to end the corruption that is spreading.

The game offers an immersive storyline that involves monstrous perils and secretive cultures in the dark continent of Wraeclast. The game introduces an innovative campaign with six engaging acts, 100 varied environments, a vast array of 600 menacing monsters, and 100 gargantuan bosses. Fans of the franchise can expect familiar gameplay aspects with fresh twists aimed at enhancing the player experience.

Path of Exile 2 continues to share the commitment that the previous title had to a genuine free-to-play model by offering a fair gaming environment free of pay-to-win mechanisms. Get the game on Steam now.
