Path of Exile 2 News

The Path of Exile 2 Boss Rush Event is coming to PAX West on August 29! Kill as many bosses as you can in 20 minutes, and win some cool prizes.


Choose between 7 preconstructed character builds, one for each class, then see how many bosses you can kill. Before each boss are a few packs of monsters so you can test out your skills, before getting to the main event. Then throw yourself at the boss for as many attempts as it takes to bring it down.

After you kill the boss, a portal will open up to the next arena, and the level of all subsequent bosses will increase. There are 15 bosses in all, we highly doubt you can kill them all!

Above the booth will be a live leaderboard featuring the top Exiles able to kill the most bosses in the shortest period of time.

If you’re planning to visit the expo - in between playing the new content update for Path of Exile 2 launching the same weekend - make sure to check out our booth! All visitors will have the chance to earn Path of Exile 2 merchandise prizes depending on how many bosses you can kill.

This August, Path of Exile 2 will once again be going to Gamescom in Cologne, Germany! This time, we wanted to do something a bit special, so we are now introducing the Path of Exile 2 Boss Rush Event. Kill as many bosses as you can in 20 minutes, and win some cool prizes.

In the past all our demos at events have been playing slices of the game, but since we are in Early Access now, we knew we wanted to make something that existing players would also enjoy trying out, and that is where the idea for the Boss Rush was born.

After you kill the boss, a portal will open up to the next arena, and the level of all subsequent bosses will increase. There are 15 bosses in all, many of which have not appeared in the game yet. We highly doubt you can kill them all!
