Explore the dark, twisted realm of Wraeclast when Path of Exile 2 Early Access launches today on PS5. With extensive endgame systems, customizable skill and build progression, new ascendencies, and much more, there’s plenty to explore and discover. There are six character classes available to players, each of which has been discarded for various reasons.

A redefined combat system

Command legions of the dead from a distance or wield a hammer, a bow, or attack with full artillery. Before you are six classes, each of which represents a gateway to unspeakable carnage:

• Monk: Fast and deadly, a blur of motion that leaves nothing but mutilated bodies in its wake.
• Sorceress: A master of destruction, weaving spells that pierce enemies and scorch the earth itself.
• Warrior: A ferocious force that wields deadly weapons with brutal efficiency and tears enemies apart with brute strength.
• Ranger: Silent, fast and deadly, a hunter in the shadows who strikes with deadly precision.
• Mercenary: Crossbow in hand, ready to wreak havoc from afar, a relentless force of calculated destruction.
• Witch: A dark sorceress who commands the servants of the Abyss, bending them to her will as they tear apart everything in their path.

With the new Uncut Gems there are no limits to your power. Unlock a wide range of skills by mixing and matching support gems that transform your abilities – making them faster, deadlier and more destructive depending on your play style.

Epic boss fights

Each step brings you closer to unspeakable horrors. The Iron Count will test your resolve with a barrage of brutal attacks. And beware of Zicoatl, Guardian of the Core, whose serpent heads writhe with malice, ready to strike down any who dare challenge him.

And when you think you’ve mastered everything, completing Act 1 through Act 3 unlocks Cruel difficulty for the endgame, requiring you to complete the campaign again. Expect a whole new level with more brutal challenges but better rewards for those who can survive the carnage.

Detailed endgame systems

Seven different endgame systems await you. Players can also access special passive trees that increase the reward of your cards and change how various end-game mechanics work. To become stronger, complete the Trials of Ascension. The Trial of Sekhemas will challenge your limits and grant unimaginable power that accelerates character development. The Trial of the Chaos God is another way to advance, but requires a token from an alien being. As you enter each room of the process, there is a lot at stake. The same goes for the cons as it becomes more dangerous than the last one.

Collaborate with a friend

However, you are not alone. Travel to the deadly continent of Wraeclast with a companion or travel in a group of six.
