Overview
- Grinding Gear Games unveiled 3.27 as the series’ first true sequel league, revisiting 2016’s Breach with Ailith-led encounters, stabilized rifts, Breach Hives, and tougher bosses.
- The Genesis Tree introduces graftable limbs called Grafts that collect Graftblood to grow gear and currencies, with 16 graft types and Foulborn variants that enable targeted, higher-tier crafting outcomes.
- Ten Bloodline ascendancies function as a secondary class unlocked by defeating specific bosses, letting players allocate points alongside their existing Ascendancy.
- Asynchronous in-game trading arrives via Faustus and Merchant tabs so items can be listed and sold without external sites, a system GGG says accounts for roughly 40–50% of trades in PoE 2.
- New skills and support gems arrive alongside quality-of-life updates such as mass identification in towns and Heist rogues starting at maximum level, with outlets split on the launch date: PC Gamer and PCGamesN cite October 31, while ComicBook.com lists October 23.
