Path of Exile 2 has just unveiled its initial early access release date, and it’ll be with us later this year on November 15.

Just earlier today atGamescom Opening Night Live, host Geoff Keighley and company pulled back the curtain on Path of Exile 2’s early access release date. The hack-and-slash RPG is launching into early access on November 15, so there’s just a few more months to wait until the long-awaited sequel is finally here.

The new trailer, which you can see just below, delves into what to expect from the upcoming action RPG. In short, it’s a lot of hacking, and a lot of slashing, against various horrific demonic foes, all of which look like they could rip you to shreds in mere seconds.

Path of Exile 2 is due to eventually launch, in full, across PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. Right now, though, it’s a little unclear whether it’ll be entering early access across all platforms, or only on PC via Steam Early Access on November 15.
