Will Scourge Become a Core Path of Exile Mechanic?

As we mentioned recently, we're expecting to launch our 3.17 expansion in early February which means that the ongoing Scourge Challenge League will end fairly soon. It prompts the question, will Scourge become a core Path of Exile mechanic?

The short answer is no. We don't have any current plans to bring Scourge back. It may still return some time in the future but we can't give any current indications for when that might be or what Scourge would look like as core game content.

In case you have unfinished challenges in this league, there are still a few weeks left to complete them before we say goodbye to The Last to Die and send the Scourge back to where they came from.

Our Event Series Has Ended!

As the Delirium Everywhere event concludes, we'd like to thank everyone who participated in any of the events! We hope you all had as much fun as we did! We'll post an update on Twitter once the prizes for Delirium Everywhere have been distributed, but for now let's check out some stats and some of our favourite moments from Twitch!

Core Supporter Pack Concept Art - Imperator

We're beginning this week with a showcase of concept art pieces created by our art team for the recently released Core Supporter Packs. This news post features the Imperator Supporter Pack concept art. We'll share the remaining concepts over the next few weeks.
