Path of Exile 2 News

Here are a few new teasers for what you can expect to see in Content Update 0.2.0. Check them out below!

We'll be adding a Quality of Life feature that lets you lock your main hand, off-hand or both, so that you can use the same item(s) between weapon sets 1 and 2!

We've mentioned before that we're adding a plethora of new Support Gems to give skills that lacked them more options! Here are a couple new ones you can expect to see: Battershout and Perfection!

We're continuing to improve the visual and audio fidelity of Path of Exile 2. Here's a sneak peek of the visual upgrade to Essences!



If you missed any of the previous teasers, you can check out all of them in our main teaser thread here. There's a lot more to come in this Content Update! Stay tuned for further announcements!

The second Path of Exile 2: Act 3 Doryani Kill race event begins in one hour! Establish yourself as one of the fastest racers and earn your very own Demigod’s Virtue Unique item. Think you’re faster than Angormous? You can create a character in 30 minutes to prove it! In order to join, click the "Join" button for the race in the Character Select screen. You'll then be prompted to create a character. Once you've spawned in, you won't be able to move your character until the race starts.

The ladder links are available here for you to check who's leading in real-time, or to check the best times after the race to see how you fare against the top.

Click here to view the full announcement and learn more about the race events and their rules.

Please note that in order to provide an even playing field for all participants and a much more enjoyable viewing experience, we'll be restricting the aspect ratio to 16:9 for these race events. Any players found to be circumventing this change by modifying their game files will be disqualified from the event and their account will be banned for breaching our Terms of Use.

If you would rather sit back and enjoy the spectacle this race will be hosted live on twitch.tv/pathofexile with shoutcasting by ZiggyD and RaizQT. Co-streaming is welcome!

Good luck to everyone who plans to participate!

Welcome to Build Showcase, a video series where we look at amazing builds from the Path of Exile 2 community that have caught our attention.

The first build we're looking at in this series is a Warrior put together by Struth Gaming. It forgoes the typical melee playstyle in favour of crossbow attacks - and somehow manages to explode entire screens with a single volley! Check it out in the video below.

For more information on this build, check out Struth Gaming's written guide here or the video guide here.

We'd also like to take this opportunity to remind you that the first Path of Exile 2 Race Event starts soon, at 11am on March 2nd (PST). Check out the full details of the event here.
