About
Path of Exile 2 is a next generation Action RPG from Grinding Gear Games, featuring co-op for up to six players. Path of Exile 2 takes place in the land of Wraeclast, a dark continent populated by unique cultures, ancient secrets, and monstrous dangers. A sinister threat, long thought destroyed, has begun creeping back on the edge of civilisation, driving people mad and sickening the land with Corruption.
Path of Exile 2 features a brand new campaign with six acts, 100 distinct environments, 600 monsters and 100 bosses.
Twelve Character Classes
Path of Exile 2 features twelve character classes, two for every combination of Strength, Dexterity and Intelligence. While each of the class variants focuses on a different playstyle, they're just a starting point. You can combine skills from many classes together to create your ideal character build.
Each of the twelve character classes has its own three Ascendancy specialisations, resulting in a total of 36 Ascendancy Classes to pick between.
New Skill Gem System
Path of Exile 2 features 240 Skill Gems that grant devastating active skills and 200 Support Gems that modify their behaviour. Combine these together to create your perfect build.
This is the next generation of Path of Exile's famous skill system. Support Gems are now socketed directly into Skill Gems, removing many of the frustrations present in the old system while maintaining all the previous depth. It's now possible to six-link every skill your character uses.
Dual-specialise your Passive Skill Tree
Path of Exile's iconic Passive Skill Tree has made a return, with 1,500 skills that allow you to completely customise your gameplay experience. It now features Dual Specialisation, the ability to allocate some passive skill points to two different sets of skills. They engage whenever the appropriate weapon or skill type is used. For example, you can have some points allocated to both daggers and traps, or ice and lightning, and as you swap between attacks, the appropriate skill points will apply. This lets you specialise in multiple areas without opportunity cost.
Uncover All-new Items
Path of Exile 2 features 700 equipment base types and every single one has its own unique item you can find. You can augment your arsenal with new weapons such as Spears, Crossbows and Flails, as well as supplementary items like Focuses, Traps and redesigned Sceptres.
Encounter Unique Bosses
In Path of Exile 2, every area of the Campaign contains a boss encounter. There's over a hundred bosses to fight as you make your way through the Acts and they all have unique mechanics to learn.
Explore a New Endgame
Completing the campaign is just the beginning. The endgame in Path of Exile 2 includes countless areas in different biomes, powerful crafting, challenging bosses, unique encounters and much more. Unlock new paths and explore further into the world.
As you progress through the endgame, you will gain access to special passive trees that can boost the rewards of your maps and change the way the various endgame mechanics work. These trees will make your maps more rewarding but also more difficult.
Path of Exile 2 introduces sequels to several leagues from Path of Exile. While their mechanics are familiar, the monsters, bosses, rewards and progression are all new.
Fair-To-Play. Never Pay-To-Win.
Path of Exile 2 is a separate game to the original Path of Exile. We will continue to offer expansions for both games going forward. They will never be "pay to win". Purchases are shared between the two games.

When it comes to connection stability this game fails epically. It's a pain in the *** to play and then all of a sudden have a massive lag. There are many more other little bugs and problems but this makes the game at times absolutely unplayable as it requires timing with the roll dodge etc.

this game sucks it is a complete waste of time and it is incredibly boring. Diablo 4 is much more fun to play. This game did help me to fall asleep. it doesn't explain any of its mechanics at all and you just use the same boring skill over and over again. Terrible. The endgame is complete ♥♥♥♥ and there is no meaningful progression as you lose xp everytime you die. Run!
There are very few games that can tick all of the boxes below: - Deep, interesting and complex overarching narrative (since the first game to this) - Great value live-service game, with no microtransactions thrown at your face in every menu, or even at all - A gameplay system so complex, you are basically taking a masters degree while playing, but simple enough you can at least finish the campaign - Loot system that can make you **** your pants from time to time - Masterclass sound design - An endgame so vast, you get lost in it - Constant new free content that adds a lot to its already massive size This game has all of this and more, it puts to shame even Diablo 2 (this is just a metaphor, as Diablo 2 is still the blueprint for all ARPGs, inspiration to others, and still, to this day, a phenomenal game). With that said, it might not click to everyone as it is indeed infinitely complex, but to those that it clicks, it goes hard. It does have its problems with late game visibility and performance issues, so beware. Have been following some interviews done to the devs since Path of Exile's 1 inception, and they still have, after all these years, their priorities in check and the best interest of players and the game in mind, above all else. I can't support them enough, they are the few out there that have this much investment on a great game as gamers, for games, so at least consider giving it a go just for that. To think it's still in early access... After it goes free-to-play by the end of 2026, this game might be my top 1 game of all time... Might... Be careful gamers, crack has never felt and tasted so good.
el juego esta optimizado como la mierda se te va a cerrar el juego una media de 40 veces por hora jugada y no es un exageración si me dicen que esta echo por niños de 3 años me lo creo de lo mal y repito mal y mal que esta echo una pedazo de mierda de experiencia de jugabilidad
Jogo mal feito... Tudo exagerado. Inimigos com vida eterna, pouca explicação sobre as coisas, coisa mal otimizada... dá é raiva esse lixo.
Jogo muito bom porém com MUUUITOS bugs, já perdi muitas coisas valiosas rollback, inimigos invisiveis por causa do loading do jogo, as prioridades do jogo estão totalmente invertidas, a lógica por trás do spawn de monstros é primeiro a hitbox, dano e depois as texturas, eles priorizam spawnar os inimigos antes das textures carregarem totalmente, o rolamento é horrivel, você vai bugar em inimigo sair andando rapido e recebendo um rollback e voltando pra onde tu rolou inicialmente que é provavelmente no meio dos inimigos e morrer. O jogo tem muuuito potencial, mas as core mecanicas em sí são beeem ruins e você não recebe nenhum suporte em relação a bugs ou compensação por perder coisas por causa de bug, Jogo é muito bom porém não recomendo da maneira que está agora.
Honestly game is good but unplayable.Cuz when u try to do something always and always bugs are block u for all mean (some bugs exploit the economy and still crash bugs for example unvisible slots, fps drop, game crash all things can be happen any day).If they will focus on crashes and bugs could be playable.
THUMBS UP!
I played for 7 hours in hopes that it would start being fun at some point, but it's obvious that it will only get worse if I keep going. Extremely boring and tedious- not hard, just tedious. It's like they're going out of their way to make a game that isn't fun for anyone
