Path Of Exile 2 Drops 0.2.0 Dawn Of The Hunt Date
Published on: 3/12/2025
The next Path of Exile 2 update has a date, and developer Grinding Gear Games teases another class that is seemingly arriving with the long-awaited PoE 2 patch 0.2.0. We’ll be getting a full reveal of everything in the early access overhaul in a couple of weeks, with the full update arriving at the start of April. However, this timing has caused some consternation among ARPG fans due to its proximity to the start of a new season for Last Epoch.
Path of Exile 2 early access has been a resounding success for Grinding Gear Games. There have certainly been some teething issues and the endgame – for as robust as it is – will need a lot more to hold up to its predecessor as one of the best RPGs on PC. But as an initial offering, Path of Exile 2 is fresh and exciting. Patch 0.2.0 is set to expand on that with a wealth of new items, skill gems, and more, and we now know that we’ll get to play it on Friday April 4.
The new update is titled Dawn of the Hunt, and that along with the spear-wielding figures in the trailer make it pretty apparent that we should expect to get our hands on the next of the Path of Exile 2 classes, the Huntress. The pure-dexterity counterpart to the Ranger, the Huntress looks to blend melee and ranged combat together, and ranks pretty highly on my most-anticipated additions. GGG has also previously teased that we’ll be seeing some new PoE 2 Ascendancies for existing classes such as the Mercenary, too.
