Path of Exile 2 Targets 1.0 Launch This Year with a Slimmer Roster
Grinding Gear Games has announced its intention to launch the full 1.0 version of Path of Exile 2 within the current year. During a recent briefing, director Jonathan Rogers explained that the team is prioritizing a solid release schedule over feature-completeness, meaning that several of the previously announced character classes will be absent from the initial launch. The decision marks a shift from the extended early access phase to a finalized product, focusing on delivering a polished core experience while leaving additional content for post-launch updates. This move highlights the developer's commitment to meeting their release window despite the technical complexities of the massive action-RPG sequel.
