Path of Exile 2

Grinding Gear Games is preparing for its first major content update for Path of Exile 2 since it entered early access in December 2024. Thus far, it’s confirmed new Support Gems, Towers spawning with end-game mechanics and bosses, and two new Unique items.

However, there’s also a new Ascendancy inbound. Based on the concept art, this could be a ballista-focused subclass for the Mercenary. It isn’t the only new Ascendancy, though the developer is keeping things under wraps. However, two more Unique items have been revealed – the Prism Guardian from Path of Exile 1 and The Deepest Tower, which is new.

Fans can also look forward to new Atlas Passive Skill Tree choices on top of a “lot” of other improvements for the in-game. Stay tuned for more details on update 0.2.0 in the coming weeks.

Path of Exile 2 is available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. Check out our review of the early access version, though it’s received numerous changes over the past few months.
