[h2]Path of Exile's Expansion Launch Date[/h2]

You'll be able to play Path of Exile: Ultimatum for free on April 16th (PDT) on PC and on April 21 (PDT) on console.

We can't wait to see you then!

For the final poll in our community-designed Divination Card series, we are inviting you to vote for the card’s artwork! In the second poll, our community voted that the card will redeem for ‘Any Unique Watchstone’ and in last week’s poll, you decided that ‘The Hook - Every obsession began with a single, innocent taste’ will be the name and flavour text of the card. Check out the ‘hook’ inspired art and vote for your favourite here.

Once the artwork has been decided, the card will be complete! We are expecting to release the Divination Card alongside our 3.14 expansion. Thank you to everyone who participated in this process. We can’t wait for you to find your creation on your adventures through Wraeclast!

Over the years, our community has shared their love for Path of Exile with us by creating incredible pieces of art inspired by the world of Wraeclast. Join us in looking back at some of the wonderful works from the past that celebrate some of our favourite characters and bosses.

If you have any Path of Exile inspired creations that you would like to share with us and the community, be sure to post them in the Community Showcase forum.

In the coming weeks, we will be announcing our 3.14 expansion. At that time, we’ll introduce a new set of League Supporter Packs, which means the Heist Supporter Packs will permanently leave the store.

There are two pairs of Heist Supporter Packs available in the store; the Spellblade Supporter Pack and the Eagle Supporter Pack. Each of the two pairs is designed in its own style with different contents, so you can choose whichever you prefer; or if you can’t decide, you can get both! If you have previously purchased a smaller pack, you have the option to upgrade to the larger one. All of the microtransactions included in the Supporter Packs are exclusive and will not be available in the store again.

If you're interested in getting one of the Heist Supporter Packs but you're not sure you'll be able to do so in time, we'd recommend setting up a payment plan which can reserve a pack for you for up to three months after the commencement of your plan. Just email us in advance at [email protected]; we'll be happy to help you!

Additionally, if you have purchased any plain points packs since September 1st 2020 (PDT), you can use this in an upgrade to one of the Heist Supporter Packs! You can credit up to 80% of the value of your desired supporter pack towards an upgrade. For example, if you purchased a $10 point pack you could then upgrade to the Spellblade or Eagle Supporter Pack for $20. You'd then receive the remainder of the contents of the pack, excluding the points you already purchased before the upgrade.

The Heist Supporter Packs will be replaced with the new ones on consoles alongside the launch of our next expansion.

Thank you so much for your continued support!
