Who doesn’t love the chance to play a game for free? In preparation for the Third Edict content update, coming on August 29, Path of Exile 2 is hosting a free weekend from August 29 to September 1, allowing anyone the opportunity to download the ARPG and enjoy all of the available content in the game. That’s right, there’s no cut-off point. You’re not locked into playing just the first Act. It’s all available for the full weekend!
As part of the free weekend, you can download Path of Exile 2 on Steam, Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and on the standalone client via the game’s official website.
Again, you’ll gain access to the entirety of the game, including the Third Edict content, but more on what’s included down the page.
