How to Get Early Access to POE 2

Here are the ways you can get Early Access to Path of Exile 2:

On PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, pay $30 on release day

On PC, pay $30 if you haven't spent more than $480 in the first game

If you're looking to play Path of Exile 2 on PS5 or Xbox Series X|S, you can gain access to the Early Access version via a $30 purchase on each console's digital storefront. This option will go live on the 6th December 2024 release date at the times stated in the section above.

For players on PC, gaining access will depend on how much money you spent on the first Path of Exile game. In a rather interesting approach, if you spent $480 or more on microtransactions and currency in the original game, you'll gain free access to Path of Exile 2 in Early Access.

If you spent less or nothing at all, then the $30 purchase is the cheapest option to play the game. The developer is also offering more expensive versions on PC that bundle in both physical and digital items. You can check those out via the link.
