One thing must improve Path of Exile 2 for Update 5 to be a success, the players say

While in Path of Exile the new season is reaching its peak, players already have demands on the developers to make Path of Exile 2 even better.

What’s the status of Path of Exile 2? After several delays, Path of Exile 2 is still in Early Access on Steam almost 1.5 years after launch. Currently, most of the player base is immersed in the new season of the predecessor, Path of Exile: Mirage.

However, this does not prevent fans from already formulating specific demands for the upcoming Update 5 for Path of Exile 2.

Here you can see the trailer for Update 4 of Path of Exile 2 along with the last new class:

A new endgame is needed

What do players demand? Naturally, players of Path of Exile 2 have very different ideas about what the developers need to address first. It is particularly clear on Reddit that the endgame has been a highlighted topic.

Especially after the developers introduced a new atlas system in the predecessor Path of Exile, players are currently asking for a new endgame system for Path of Exile 2. Many players feel that the scope of the endgame is too small.

Here, players hope for an expansion of the endgame, but also for an improvement of the structure, which has historically been criticized repeatedly.

What else is highly valued? Players of Path of Exile 2 are looking for a new class along with a new weapon. So far, melee combat in the game has received little attention in the update. Therefore, swords and axes and their corresponding classes are an important concern for players.

If Path of Exile 2 wants to leave Early Access by 2026, the developers need to hurry, because even if some of the classes currently in development are added at release: Without new classes, the community is unlikely to remain engaged for long.
