Description

Path of Exile 2: Return to the Darkness

Prepare to descend once more into the brutal and unforgiving world of Wraeclast. Path of Exile 2 is the next-generation free-to-play action RPG from Grinding Gear Games, set years after the events of the original Path of Exile. Return to the dark continent and discover a land consumed by a new, creeping corruption that spreads further with every passing moment.

This is not just an expansion, but a full sequel featuring an all-new epic seven-act storyline, alongside the deep character customization, visceral combat, and complex itemization that defines the series.

A New Campaign, A Darker Wraeclast

Twenty years have passed since the death of Kitava, but a new evil stirs in Wraeclast. Society is slowly rebuilding, but ambition and corruption take root once more. Embark on a brand-new seven-act campaign filled with new environments, deadly new monsters, challenging boss encounters, and a cast of fresh faces alongside familiar ones. The darkness runs deeper than ever before.

Next-Generation Action RPG Combat

Experience the evolution of Path of Exile’s signature fast-paced, visceral combat:

• Twelve Character Classes: Choose from twelve distinct starting classes (two for each combination of Strength, Dexterity, and Intelligence). Each class boasts three unique Ascendancy specializations, resulting in an incredible 36 Ascendancy Classes to master.
• Revolutionary Skill Gem System: Say goodbye to fiddly socket linking! Skill Gems now have sockets directly on them. This allows for far more depth in customizing individual skills while making the system more intuitive. Swap skills in and out easily without rebuilding your gear.
• Enhanced Combat Feel: Utilize new mechanics like a dedicated Dodge Roll (with no cooldown or charges) and the ability to specialize in two different weapon sets, swapping between them instantly mid-combat for dynamic attack combinations.

Unrivaled Customization

Forge a truly unique character:

• Massive Passive Skill Tree: The iconic passive skill tree returns, offering near-limitless possibilities to shape your character’s stats and playstyle. New features like Dual Specialization allow further refinement.
• Deep Itemization: Hunt for powerful items with complex stats and modifiers. Utilize a deep crafting system to create the perfect gear for your build. New item types and interactions await.

Stunning New Visuals & Endgame

Explore the corrupted world of Wraeclast brought to life with a completely overhauled graphics engine, featuring new character models, animations, and physically based rendering. After completing the campaign, dive into Path of Exile’s renowned endgame, featuring over 100 maps, each with its own unique boss fight, and further challenges to test your ultimate build.
