Elon Musk approves: Path of Exile 2 has received a major update and a handy name change feature

Path of Exile 2's latest update, 0.1.1c, addresses several key issues and introduces notable improvements. The Grinding Gear Games team has detailed the changes implemented in this significant patch.

Key Bug Fixes and Enhancements:

  • Character Transfer Fix: Resolved a bug preventing access to the Cartwalker Machine after transferring characters from solo league.
  • Local Co-op Improvements: Addressed various bugs in local co-op mode where Player 2 could inappropriately access Player 1's UI elements (e.g., high-level maps) and fixed movement restrictions for Player 2 between control points.
  • Increased Revival Attempts: Added up to five revival attempts in challenging areas: Distorted Possessions, the Olroth boss fight, and the Essence of Nonexistence realm. Dying before defeating the Host in The Mists now results in a revival within the boss arena, restarting the encounter.

Additional Features:

  • Character Renaming: Players can now rename their characters via the official website.

Ongoing Success and Development:

Following the launch of Path of Exile 2, Grinding Gear Games maintains its prominent position on the Steam charts. While acknowledging initial launch challenges, the developers are actively working to refine the game experience based on player feedback.
