Path of Exile 2 Early Access Delayed to December 6 Due to Server Challenges

Grinding Gear Games cites complex server-side issues as the reason for pushing back the launch by three weeks.

The delay is attributed to the need for extensive server-side infrastructure work to ensure microtransactions function seamlessly across Path of Exile 1 and 2.
Game Director Jonathan Rogers has taken full responsibility for the delay, emphasizing the importance of preventing data loss and account issues.
Originally set for November 15, the new early access launch date is December 6, 2024.
The team is conducting additional load testing to handle the expected high player volume at launch.
A livestream is planned in about four weeks to reveal details about the content available in early access.
