Can you play Path of Exile 2 with couch co-op?

Yes—Path of Exile 2 will feature a fully dedicated couch co-op experience for players to enjoy the game with friends from the comfort of their home. The feature isn’t common in games these days, so it’s a refreshing to see it added to a mainstream title. Path of Exile 2 currently has no confirmed release date, but when it does drop, players can jump straight into couch co-op.

Is Path of Exile 2 free-to-play?

Yes, the game will be free, just like the original title. It will, of course, likely contain a cosmetic shop like the first title. Also, if you’ve collected a ton of skins and cosmetics from the first game, you’re in luck, as everything you purchased in Path of Exile carries over to the second game. This is yet another feature that’s generally lacking in live-service titles, as some of the most popular ones like EA Sports FC and Call of Duty don’t let players carry over their purchases to the next yearly entry.
