Path of Exile News

We now have a good grasp on final capacity numbers for our ExileCon event in July, so we're able to make the last small wave of ExileCon tickets available for purchase at the end of this week. These are regular and balcony ExileCon tickets, as the VIP and Ultra VIP tickets are completely sold out.

The remaining regular tickets will be available for purchase at 2pm on Thursday 27th of April. (You will need to be logged in to view the local time).

There will be approximately 77 balcony tickets and 179 regular tickets available to purchase. These will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. To get yours, go to pathofexile.com/exilecon at the time the sale starts.

Please also note that the name on your ticket needs to match your photo ID, so when purchasing a second ticket for your friend or a family member, make sure that the name on that ticket matches their photo ID.

This is likely to be the final wave of tickets, so if you are planning to attend ExileCon in person, don't miss out on them! We can't reserve tickets for you, so the only way to get one from this last batch is to be online at exactly the time they go on sale. Good luck!

This weekend, we're hosting a sale on a huge selection of Skill Effects! This sale includes every Skill Effect in the store except the new ones which were released since the launch of Crucible, which brings the count to over 400 discounted effects! You can find the full range of discounted microtransactions in-game by pressing M to open the store. The sale ends at 5pm April 24th (PDT).

If slaying monsters sets your heart aflutter, the Fluttering Eye of Winter Effect could be for you! Pair it with the Enchanted Armour Pack from the Enchanter Series Supporter Packs to maximise your butterfly coverage!



If you need points for the sale, check out our Crucible and Core Supporter Packs!

Thanks for your support!

At ExileCon in July, we will be hosting a competitive Path of Exile event live on the main stage. This event will be the culmination of a series of four qualifier events where Path of Exile's best racers will compete for a spot in the finale.

In each of these events, players will compete to be the first to kill Kitava in Act 5 in a Standard Solo Self-Found fixed seed environment. While this is not a Hardcore Event, players will incur a penalty upon death where they will not be able to move until a one-minute period has lapsed.
