Continuing our roundup of the Divination Card Stories series, today's news post highlights the stories behind five more of the cards designed by supporters. Check them out!

If you've designed a Divination Card that has been released and would like to share the story about the meaning of your card, please feel free to send us a message here!

Rebirth and Renewal - kx10yf

"While I designed this card, I thought of Gandhi's enlightening words: "Each night, when I go to sleep, I die. And the next morning, when I wake up, I am reborn.""



Bijoux - Pepetuch

"Needless to say, I really...really needed some specific cluster jewels that would not drop for me. Thus, a cluster jewel card was born."



Doryani's Epiphany - Kezlyr

"It's not at all an exaggeration to say that my family is only as close as it is because of Path of Exile."




The Bitter Blossom - ReignFreeze

"Jumping into Path of Exile felt like coming home. There is a special place in my heart for the first time I defeated Merveil and entered the freshly created Act 2 for the first time, and who can forget the Piety-runs, trying to get the best bases we could back then."



The Fool - Jmatt

"Let me start off by saying that it’s nice to see that a lot of Divination Cards created by the community represent something that is very meaningful and emotional to the creators of those cards. This, however, is definitely not one of those."

The Gamescom event spans from the 23rd - 27th of August in Cologne, Germany. We'll be attending, and you'll be able to play Path of Exile 2 at our booth!

We'll be at Hall 06.1, Stand B-051g so be sure to drop by to meet some of our team and try out Path of Exile 2, especially if you aren't able to make it to ExileCon!

We'll also be trying to arrange a fan meetup prior to the event. Keep your eyes peeled for more information on where and when this will happen, to be confirmed closer to the date!

A long time ago, we shared a series of videos showcasing hypothetical fights between some of Wraeclast's deadly denizens. We wanted to take a trip down memory lane and check out some of those grueling battles in today's news post!

Check out some of the fights in the videos below, or check out the full playlist on YouTube here!
