Path of Exile 2: The Next Big Dungeon Adventure is Coming
Grinding Gear Games has just dropped a big news bomb at ExileCon – a sequel to their beloved action RPG, Path of Exile. The reveal came with a slick first trailer that’s already got fans buzzing.
What’s the Deal?
- A brand‑new seven‑act story that keeps the same core feel but adds a twist.
- Players can hop between the original campaign or the new one, but both paths funnel toward the same epic final stage.
- All the expansions that have been dropped since 2013 will appear in Path of Exile 2. Think of it like an Overwatch 2‑style overhaul rather than a brand‑new title.
- 19 fresh Ascendancy Classes that echo the classic archetypes, but with new, cooler abilities.
- A revamped Skill Gem system that keeps the customization fun while cutting down on the paperwork.
Release Status
The official website says no fixed launch date yet. But they’re aiming for a beta test by the end of 2020, and they’re confident that the new project won’t slow down the usual three‑month updates for the original game.
Why It Matters
For fans of the series, this isn’t just a sequel – it’s a combo of fresh content, deeper mechanics, and a seamless transition back to the old (and newly expanded) path. It’s like getting a new adventure in the same familiar universe, with all the goodies you’re already used to.
