[h2]How to Participate[/h2]

Simply link your Path of Exile account to Twitch (see below) and tune into GGG Live at www.twitch.tv/pathofexile, or any channel in the Path of Exile 2 Directory for 90 minutes on Thursday November 21st (PST). Drops will be enabled from 12PM PST until 9PM PST.

You will get the Hands of Xesht Back Attachment after 90 minutes of accumulated watch time on any channel streaming Path of Exile 2 during the event. This means that the drop is guaranteed for everyone who has watched any Path of Exile 2 stream for this amount of time. This promotion is available for all accounts.

*If you’re planning to stream Path of Exile 2 during our livestream and want to enable Twitch Drops for your viewers, you can do it via your Twitch Creator Dashboard here. Please be mindful of category change this time, and enable Drops for Path of Exile 2.

[h2]Linking your Path of Exile Account to Twitch[/h2]Visit your Twitch Settings page while logged in. If your account isn't connected, click the "Connect" button for Twitch under "Other Connections". Please also make sure that the sub-account you’re linking with Twitch is the one that you want to receive the Drop to. Complete the process on Twitch and you will be redirected back to your Twitch Settings page. If your account is already connected, this page should say "Your Path of Exile account is currently linked to your Twitch account."

After you've accumulated enough watch time to earn your Hands of Xesht Back Attachment, you must redeem them from your Twitch Inventory before the promotional period ends. Then they will be available in your microtransactions list in Path of Exile and Path of Exile 2 (when it launches in Early Access on December 6th).

The Hands of Xesht Back Attachment will be available for purchase in both Path of Exile 1 and Path of Exile 2 at a later date.

Path of Exile 2 Delayed Three Weeks to December 6th PST

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
Unfortunately we have some bad news. We have to delay Early Access for 3 weeks. The new date is the 6th of December.

We're really sorry about this one. People plan time off and things like that around our launches, but we just had to do it.

So what happened? It turns out that it isn't the game itself that we are behind on, it's a bunch of server side infrastructure work that has taken us a lot longer than we expected.

One of the key promises we made is that all your microtransactions will work across both Path of Exile 1 and 2. In order to do that, we have to integrate the account systems for not only Path of Exile 1 and 2, but also for the console realms as well.

We have to get everything perfect so that nobody loses anything they paid for, and nobody has their account broken.

So with that in mind, we have decided to delay.

We are going to be having a livestream talking all about the content you can expect in Path of Exile 2's Early Access in about 4 weeks. You can think of it like the biggest league announcement we have ever done. We're really looking forward to telling you all about the endgame content that the team has been working hard on.

Until then though, thanks for your support.

Path of Exile 2 Early Access Livestream Announcement Coming Soon!

In about a month from now, we'll be doing a livestream that covers all the content of Early Access for Path of Exile 2, and how you'll be able to gain access.

We won't reveal too much just yet, but we'd like to clarify that just like Fall of Oriath, entry to Early Access will be gained by purchasing one of the new Supporter Packs containing a key. These new Supporter Packs will be revealed during the livestream. Players that meet a threshold of lifetime support in Path of Exile 1 will also be invited to participate in Early Access without needing to purchase a key.

We can't wait to tell you all about Early Access soon!
