Thank you to everyone who tuned into the livestream and to those who participated. Good luck next week, Exiles!

In the lead up to Early Access for Path of Exile 2, we put together an artbook showcasing a collection of works from our amazing artists that they made during the development of the game. Check out some pages from "The Art of Path of Exile 2" below!


You can get your own copy of "The Art of Path of Exile 2" for a limited time by purchasing the Liberator of Wraeclast Supporter Pack.

Thanks for your support!

We've recently hired a new data analyst that some of you may recognise from the community, Lilylicious! Part of her work involves gathering information from game logs, which can provide some interesting stats. Check out a snapshot of fun stats below!

These stats are from the 18th-25th of February 2025, representing a week's worth of Early Access data:

• Total gold dropped - 899 billion (this works out to be about 1.5 million gold per second!)
  
• Total player deaths - 14.5 million
  
• Mean player level - 75
  
• Median player level - 89
  

As an extra little stat, the logs for the week accumulate to ~1.5TB of data. Pulling this info from the logs was quite time consuming, which is why we've just done a one week snapshot. We're keen to post more stats like these in the future, and are developing tools to let us do so more easily and comprehensively. Since writing this post, we've actually improved our system so that the same data takes only about 115GB to store while remaining easy to work with. Let us know if there's anything in particular you'd like to see!

Path of Exile 2 introduced some amazing bosses into the world of Wraeclast and we wondered… who would win in a clash between them? Today we’ve pitted the Mighty Silverfist against the savage Rathbreaker!

Let us know who you would like to see next, perhaps we can find out who is the strongest of them all!
