Path of Exile 2 on local Co-op and Early Access consoles

If you're not excited, you probably need a mana potion.

Co-op Local: Bringing back couch nights

Remember when playing video games with friends on the couch was the best thing in the world? Well, Grinding Gear Games remembers, which is why they're bringing local co-op to Path of Exile 2.

According to Jonathan Rogers, the head of the project, “Action RPGs are much cooler when you can yell at your friend next door for getting the loot you wanted.” Grab two controllers, sit on the couch and get ready to blast monsters together.

If you've always argued with your friends about which platform is the best, now you can take a break from those arguments. With Path of Exile 2, you can play on PC, Xbox, or PlayStation, and still keep all your progress. It's like gaming world peace – at least until someone steals your drop.

Improved Controls: Less frustration, more destruction

Who said playing action RPG with controller is complicated? Path of Exile 2 Now supports dual analog stick controls and button customization. This means you can tweak everything the way you want and spend less time fighting the menu and more time blasting monsters.

More Accessible: Less puzzles, more action

Path of Exile has always been a game for those who like to rack their brains, but the sequel will be a little more friendly to newcomers. With video tutorials and a new help system, you won't need a degree in RPGs to understand what's going on. Finally, something we don't need a 300 page guide to play!

What to Expect from Path of Exile 2:

• State-of-the-art Graphics and Gameplay: It'll be like traveling to Wraeclast, but without leaving the couch.
• New Classes and Bosses: Twelve character classes and over 100 unique bosses. It's like Pokémon, but with a lot more blood.
• Skill Jewel System: 240 Skill Gems and 200 Support Gems to make your character as unique as a fingerprint.
• Equipment and Endgame: Hundreds of types of equipment and an endgame that will keep you engaged more than marathoning series on Netflix.

Early Access:

Path of Exile 2 will be available in Early Access for PC, macOS, Xbox Series X&S and PlayStation 5 until the end of 2024. So, get ready to embark on this epic new journey. And remember: the best defense is a good attack, but a good attack with a friend by your side is even better.
