PoE2 Unveils Update with Cosmetic Overhaul

Path of Exile 2's latest update, 0.1.1c, addresses several key issues and introduces improvements. The Grinding Gear Games team detailed the fixes and additions in their announcement.

Here's a summary of the changes:

  • Bug Fixes: The update resolves a bug preventing access to the Cartwalker Machine after character transfers from solo league. Several local cooperative mode bugs have been squashed, including issues where Player 2 could access Player 1's UI elements (like high-level maps) and difficulties with rapid movement between control points.

  • Increased Revival Attempts: Players now have up to five revival attempts in several challenging areas: Distorted Possessions, the Olroth boss fight, and the Essence of Nonexistence realm. In The Mists, death before defeating the Host will result in revival within the boss arena, restarting the encounter.

  • Character Renaming: A convenient new feature allows players to rename their characters directly through the official website.

Grinding Gear Games continues to maintain a strong presence atop the Steam charts following Path of Exile 2's launch. Despite initial challenges, the developers are actively addressing player feedback and improving the game experience.
