Path of Exile 2 to Introduce New Challenge League with Full Version

A lot of new content is planned to be added.

The full version of Path of Exile 2 is releasing next month. One of the latest features to be added is a new Challenge League.

In particular, the Conquerors of Wraeclast Challenge League has players join Varek and his mercenaries to try to conquer Wraeclast. It invites players to explore the new endgame storyline and prevent the awakening of the ancient Blood Lord. They'll need to rescue new allies, locate enemy fortifications, deploy troops on the battlefield, and ultimately lead the army to victory. Players can build their ranks by recruiting skilled warriors to stand against the enemy army. There are more than 70 new points of interest to discover which give everyone the chance to recruit troops and take on unique missions. Meanwhile, players that are able to conquer castles can uncover their treasury rooms and find a new type of crafting material that lets them reforge their gear.

In the endgame, players can establish a stronghold for their growing army. They can choose between three factions, each with its own style of fortress and unique troops to recruit.

Aside from the new Challenge, the full version of Path of Exile 2 also brings with it more chapters to enjoy and even new classes to try out. Read more about that here.

Other new content include more than 40 new Unique Items in addition to at least 70 existing items being revamped. There are also new skills being added to a few classes like the Warrior and the Witch.

The Passive Skill Tree also received a major makeover through the addition of hundreds of new stats. The Jewel Sockets have all been moved into the clusters, so players can now consider which clusters their build really needs instead of going after every Jewel Socket.

Path of Exile 2 is an action RPG that features co-op for up to six players. The game takes place in the land of Wraeclast, a dark continent populated by unique cultures, ancient secrets, and monstrous dangers. A sinister threat that was long thought destroyed seems to have started creeping back on the edge of civilization, driving people mad, and sickening the land with Corruption. Path of Exile 2 is currently in Early Access on Steam. The full version is releasing December 11.
