Path of Exile 2’s 1.0 Reveal Is Set for ExileCon 2026 Next Week

Posted on by

Grinding Gear Games will show the next major step toward Path of Exile 2’s full release during ExileCon 2026 on November 6 PST. The studio says its “big announcements” will be part of the event broadcast, which starts at 12:30 PM PST on the official Path of Exile Twitch and YouTube channels.

The reveal is being framed as the full 1.0 reveal for Path of Exile 2, though Grinding Gear hasn’t shared the actual release date or specific content details yet. For now, the main thing to know is that the next update on the action RPG’s road to full launch is coming during the ExileCon keynote.

ExileCon 2026 is being held at Aotea Centre in Auckland, New Zealand, with the keynote scheduled for 10 AM local time on Saturday, November 7. Online viewers will also be able to watch gameplay demonstrations and developer panels across the weekend, and Grinding Gear says talks and panels will be posted afterward for anyone who misses them live.

The studio also posted attendee details ahead of the convention. International visitors are being reminded to apply for an NZeTA before traveling to New Zealand. Badge pickup opens Friday, November 6, and attendees will need the QR code from their Path of Exile account page plus matching photo ID. The event is restricted to ages 16 and up.

VIP and Ultra VIP ticket holders have a dinner on Friday evening at Auckland’s Viaduct Harbour, while the ExileCon after party runs Sunday, November 8 from 8 PM to 11 PM local time and is restricted to ages 18 and up.
