Players who have made purchases in the first Path of Exile need not worry, as their previous acquisitions will carry over to Path of Exile 2. PoE Account sharing between the two titles will also be possible POE currency trade .

Path of Exile 2 will showcase a new rendering system, resulting in improved visual appeal through higher resolution environments, characters, and objects. Additionally, the game will introduce 700 equipment base types, including new and returning weapon types.

The skill gem system in Path of Exile 2 has undergone a significant overhaul. Instead of specific gems dropped by bosses and enemies, players will now obtain uncut gems corresponding to the content level they are engaged in. These uncut gems can be cut to acquire desired skills. The introduction of meta gems that can socket other gems provides further versatility.

The game will offer twelve classes and 36 Ascendancy specializations, allowing players to create unique character builds based on strength, dexterity, and intelligence combinations. Additionally, every class will possess a dodge roll ability, mapped to the space bar.

Boss encounters in Path of Exile 2 will reward players with unique items that permanently upgrade stats upon defeat. Furthermore, there will be no respawning directly back into the action upon death, emphasizing the challenge in progressing through maps.

Players will have the ability to auto-switch weapons, enabling them to build different skill trees based on the weapon held. Dual-specing characters becomes possible, although there may be some lag when switching weapons and skill trees.

The game aims to eliminate most cooldowns, ensuring combat is more engaging and dynamic. Additionally, there are hints of potential auto-looting features, making it easier to gather dropped gold from defeated enemies.

With its anticipated release and promising new features, Path of Exile 2 is set to provide an exhilarating experience for fans and newcomers alike.
