Path of Exile 2 is free-to-play from December 11, 2026. Until then, the only thing on sale is a supporter pack. They start at $29.99 on Steam and go up to $89.99. Exactly one of them includes access to the game itself.
If you have been wondering whether to buy in early, here is what each pack costs and what is actually inside it.
What Path of Exile 2 costs right now
Steam lists seven supporter packs for Path of Exile 2. The base game itself carries no price on the store page. Access to it comes bundled in the cheapest pack, not sold on its own.
| Pack | Price on Steam | Comes with the game |
|---|---|---|
| Early Access Supporter Pack | $29.99 | Yes |
| Divinity Supporter Pack | $29.99 | No |
| Bloodreaver Supporter Pack | $29.99 | No |
| Elite Bloodreaver Supporter Pack | $59.99 | No |
| Knight of Divinity Supporter Pack | $59.99 | No |
| Arbiter of Divinity Supporter Pack | $89.99 | No |
| Eternal Bloodreaver Supporter Pack | $89.99 | No |
Every pack except the first one says so in its own store description: “This Supporter Pack does not provide Early Access to Path of Exile 2.” That line is the most useful thing on the page. It is easy to miss, because the packs sit next to each other with similar names and a similar price.
Supporter packs are cosmetics, not editions. They have no bearing on which version of the game you play, and nothing in them changes the campaign, the endgame or the new Shadow class. Two players who both spend $29.99 can end up with completely different-looking games.
What is inside each pack
The contents come from Valve’s own store pages, one line at a time. The $29.99 Early Access Supporter Pack contains the Path of Exile 2 Early Access key and 300 Points. Nothing else.
The $29.99 Divinity Supporter Pack contains a Dodge Roll Effect, a Portal, a Social Frame, a Forum Title, a Badge and 300 Points. The $29.99 Bloodreaver Supporter Pack swaps that list for a Weapon Effect called Exsanguinator, Charges, a Social Frame, a Forum Title, a Badge and 300 Points. Neither one gives you the game itself.
The $59.99 Knight of Divinity Supporter Pack adds an Armour Set, a Character Effect, the Dodge Roll Effect, the Portal and 600 points. The $59.99 Elite Bloodreaver Supporter Pack is the mirror image, with an Armour Set, a Bloodreaver Gargoyle Pet, the Exsanguinator Weapon Effect and Charges.
The two $89.99 packs are the cumulative ones. The Arbiter of Divinity Supporter Pack includes Wings, a Divine Genesis Map Device and the full Knight of Divinity set. The Eternal Bloodreaver Supporter Pack includes a Bloodreaver Manor Hideout, a Servant of the Manor Merchant and the full Elite Bloodreaver set.
Points are store credit for the in-game cosmetic shop, not currency you spend on power. A point pack on its own buys nothing but a balance for that shop. Points are the reason a $29.99 pack can be worth more than its price for a player who wants one specific armor set and does not care about the rest.
The old packs are leaving the store
There is a deadline on all of this. GGG announced on October 22 that the current Early Access Supporter Packs are “leaving the store forever in a few weeks, to be replaced by a set of five new packs.” Their post says each pack includes microtransactions usable in both Path of Exile 1 and Path of Exile 2. On top of that come early access keys, points and pack-exclusive cosmetics. Higher tiers add physical merchandise such as T-shirts, hoodies and a Path of Exile 2 artbook.
That post also flags a real cost for anyone hesitating. GGG says you can reserve a pack for up to three months with a payment plan. You have to email [email protected] in advance to arrange it. That is the difference between buying a pack in November and losing it.
On the PlayStation Store, the console equivalent is the $29.99 Path of Exile 2 Founders Pack for Early Access. That store page also carries 50, 100 and 200 point packs, named supporter packs and a set of PlayStation Plus bundles.
What free-to-play on December 11 actually means
The launch itself is free. GGG’s announcement from gamescom says Path of Exile 2 “launches as a fully free-to-play action RPG on December 11.” The ExileCon keynote on November 6 confirmed it again.
What stays paid after the launch is the cosmetic store. The early access packs keep their value for the cosmetics inside them. GGG’s Early Access FAQ explains the rule that trips people up. Buy a key for one PC client and you can claim a key to unlock the others, so a Steam purchase does not lock you out of the standalone or Epic versions.
The other free thing on offer is the registration reward. GGG’s full release registration FAQ says everyone who registers at pathofexile2.com/register gets at least one microtransaction code by email after the launch, and up to five if the community unlocks all four registration milestones. Those cosmetics are exclusive to the promotion and will not be sold in the store. You can redeem one code per account.
We pulled the price and contents of all seven Steam supporter packs and the PlayStation Store Founders Pack. The gap between the cheapest and dearest purchase is $60 for cosmetics that do not change a single fight. The decision is therefore simple for most players. If you want early access, buy the $29.99 Early Access Supporter Pack, then spend the rest of the budget only on the cosmetics you actually want. The more interesting part is the timing. GGG has said the current packs leave the store permanently, and the five replacement packs are a different product line. A player who waits for the new packs gets a clean start with no launch-day skins. A player who waits too long on the old ones loses them outright. What we cannot settle from official sources is what the five new packs will contain or what they will cost, because GGG has not published either. Our full release story covers what arrives with the launch, and our PC specs guide has the hardware and the 100 GB download. If you are sorting out which platform to play on, our cross-platform guide explains what carries between them and what does not. The Path of Exile 2 game page keeps all four pieces together.
