Path of Exile director Mark Roberts isn't afraid to change "very ancient and often low-quality content"

Path of Exile 3.28, the ARPG's new 'Mirage' update, brings its previous league, Keepers of the Flame, to the core game. While it's relatively common for developer Grinding Gear Games to adapt old seasonal mechanics into a more permanent, if less dramatic, incarnation that sticks around for good, this one feels a little different. Keepers was the RPG's first-ever 'sequel league,' introducing a new and evolved form of Breach. With its integration into the main game, that means the old-school incarnation of Breach is essentially gone.

Path of Exile: Mirage Launches Soon

Path of Exile: Mirage will launch on PC soon! In this news post, we’ve gathered all the information you need to know about what happens on launch day.

Realms will go down at: Mar 06, 2026 8:00 AM PST and patching will begin shortly after.

The servers go live at: Mar 06, 2026 11:00 AM PST

The patch size for the update will be around 12GB on all platforms.

Don’t forget to link your Path of Exile account with your Twitch account to earn new Twitch Drops at launch! If you're streaming Mirage on Twitch, here's an asset for you to use for the upcoming Support a Streamer promo!

Stand out in this League Start with the new Iron Incarcerator and Curator of Wisdom Supporter Packs by checking the Steam store. If you were planning to grab the Champion of Theopolis and Verdant Magus this is your last chance to do so.

In case you still haven’t decided which build to play, check out the Class subsection on the forum for suggestions from the community. Many of our community streamers are also providing build guides on YouTube!

We can’t wait to see your latest adventures through Wraeclast. See you at launch!

Path of Exile: Mirage Challenge Rewards

In Path of Exile: Mirage, you’ll be able to earn pieces of the Orb Regalia Armour Set by completing 40 new challenges.

At 12, 20, 28, and 36 challenges you’ll receive the Orb Regalia Boots, Gloves, Body Armour and Helmet respectively.

Completing challenges also grants you pieces of the Mirage Challenger Trophy Hideout Decoration!

In Ruthless you’ll receive these microtransactions at 2, 4, 6, and 8 challenges completed.

We also wanted to note that we are aware of the feedback regarding challenge rewards and are planning to introduce four different cosmetic rewards next league rather than pieces from a single Armour Set. Going forward, we are keen to have a rotation of challenge rewards, where one league would feature an Armour Set and the next one would feature a selection of different microtransactions.
