While it feels like we’ve been waiting ages for Path of Exile 2, it’s actually on the way, and sooner than one might think. Grinding Gear said that in little less than a month, it will host a livestream “that covers all the content of early access” for Path of Exile 2 and how players can secure a berth.
“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.”
