As we mentioned recently, we're expecting to launch our 3.17 expansion in early February which means that the ongoing Scourge Challenge League will end fairly soon. It prompts the question, will Scourge become a core Path of Exile mechanic?

The short answer is no. We don't have any current plans to bring Scourge back. It may still return some time in the future but we can't give any current indications for when that might be or what Scourge would look like as core game content.

In case you have unfinished challenges in this league, there are still a few weeks left to complete them before we say goodbye to The Last to Die and send the Scourge back to where they came from.

We're beginning this week with a showcase of concept art pieces created by our art team for the recently released Core Supporter Packs. This news post features the Imperator Supporter Pack concept art. We'll share the remaining concepts over the next few weeks.

Looking for some best buddies to join your travels through Wraeclast? Or maybe you want somewhere new to relax along the way? Now is the perfect time to find your new favourites because this weekend we are running a sale on Hideouts and Pets! You can view the full range of discounted microtransactions here.

If you need some inspiration, check out these awesome pets chilling out in some of the hideouts that are included in the sale!

Most of our team has returned from the end-of-year holiday break. We're excited to return and officially wish you a Happy New Year! We're eager to continue the development of Path of Exile's 3.17 expansion and Path of Exile 2 and can't wait to show you what we have in the pipeline.

We're very excited about our plans for 2022 and while our 3.17 expansion reveal is just around the corner, over the course of this year we expect to reveal a lot more of Path of Exile 2. We will confirm the dates for our 3.17 expansion launch as soon as we can, to ensure you have as much notice as possible to plan accordingly.

Thanks for your patience in letting our team take some time off to recharge for the year ahead. We really appreciate it. We'd love to hear how your New Years went and see photos of you enjoying yourselves!

It's hard to believe that we've already made it to the end of 2021! As we start to welcome in the new year, we wanted to take a moment to look back on the year that was.

In 2021:

• We launched four expansions: Echoes of the Atlas, Ultimatum, Expedition and Scourge!


• Despite New Zealand borders still being closed due to COVID, we expanded from 149 to 165 in-house staff members. In fact, we have so many people now that we are renovating a third floor of our office building! Photos coming in a few months when the space is ready.


• We've been continuing to work on Path of Exile 2 and have released ...

Later this week (likely on Tuesday, December 21st at 4pm PST) we'll deploy a fix to an issue in Standard league that would fail the conversion of the entire map stash tab upon converting an old map into another map that you didn't have enough room for. As a result of this fix, the map stash (and guild map stash) functionality has been changed to the following:

• Your first purchased map stash will always be set to the current map series.


• If the map series changes and your map stash is not empty, it will become remove-only and you will get a new empty map stash set to the current series.


• You can only change the map series on a map stash if you still have at least one non-remove-only map stash set to the current series after the change. This means that you won't be able to change the map sta...
