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 fixes and additions implemented.

Here's a summary of the changes:

  • Bug Fixes: The update resolves a bug preventing access to the Cartwalker Machine after character transfers from solo league. Various local co-op bugs have been squashed, preventing Player 2 from accessing Player 1's UI elements (like high-level maps) and improving movement between control points.

  • Increased Revival Attempts: Players now have up to five revival attempts in several challenging areas: Distorted Possessions, the Olroth encounter, and the Essence of Nonexistence realm. The number of attempts scales with difficulty. In The Mists, death before defeating the Host will result in revival within the boss arena, restarting the fight.

  • Character Renaming: A convenient new feature allows players to rename their characters via the official website.

Grinding Gear Games continues to maintain a strong presence atop the Steam charts following Path of Exile 2's launch. Despite initial challenges, the developers are actively addressing player feedback and improving the game's overall experience.
