Path of Exile has been widely praised as capturing the best of the Diablo franchise and expanding on it with its own unique and well-polished ideas particularly in the department of character customisation and depth.ĭeveloped from a small team of New Zealand developers Path of Exile is clearly a labour of love that has expanded far beyond the original concept and exposure the developers expected with the Diablo community grabbing firmly onto the Path of Exile experience.

Path of Exile is a free to play action role playing game that draws plenty of comparison to the Diablo series and in particular Diablo 2 for its similar dark and foreboding atmosphere that has players starting from scraps to fighting against uber monsters with legendary gear.
