Recently, Grinding Gear Games shared a bunch of interesting information for Path of Exile 2 at ExileCon 2023. During the event, they shared a gameplay walkthrough to really show what players have in store for them, as well as the third official trailer for the game.

This next-generation free-to-play ARPG title is set years after the original Path of Exile. Players will return to the dark world of Wraeclast and seek to end the corruption that is spreading. To fight back against the corruption, players can either run solo or with some friends as this multiplayer title allows co-up with up to six players.

Here are the details of what this game will feature:

• Twelve Character Classes - Path of Exile 2 features twelve character classes, two for every combination of Strength, Dexterity, and Intelligence. While each of the class variants focuses on a different playstyle, they're just a starting point. You can combine skills from many classes together to create your ideal character build. Each of the twelve character classes has its own three Ascendancy specializations, resulting in a total of 36 Ascendancy Classes to pick between.

• New Skill Gem System - Path of Exile 2 features 240 Skill Gems that grant devastating active skills and 200 Support Gems that modify their behavior. Combine these together to create your perfect build.  This is the next generation of Path of Exile's famous skill system. Support Gems are now socketed directly into Skill Gems, removing many of the frustrations present in the old system while maintaining all the previous depth. It's now possible to six-link every skill your character uses.

• Dual-specialise your Passive Skill Tree - Path of Exile's iconic Passive Skill Tree has made a return, with 2,000 skills that allow you to completely customize your gameplay experience. It now features Dual Specialisation, the ability to allocate some passive skill points to two different sets of skills. They engage whenever the appropriate weapon or skill type is used. For example, you can have some points allocated to both daggers and traps, or ice and lightning, and as you swap between attacks, the appropriate skill points will apply. This lets you specialize in multiple areas without opportunity cost.

• Uncover All-new Items - Path of Exile 2 features 700 equipment base types and every single one has its own unique item you can find. You can augment your arsenal with new weapons such as Spears, Crossbows, and Flails, as well as supplementary items like Focuses, Traps, and redesigned Sceptres.

• Explore a new Endgame -  At the conclusion of Path of Exile 2's six-act campaign, you'll gain access to its endgame. Each of the more than 100 endgame maps has its own boss fight and modifiers that enable revamped versions of many of Path of Exile's past leagues.

Path of Exile 2 is currently planned to launch a public beta in June 2024 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. For now, enjoy the gameplay in action below!
