Grinding Gear Games has released a new 12-minute Path of Exile 2 gameplay video focusing on the Mercenary class.
The Mercenary is a crossbow-wielding character class in Path of Exile 2. The class plays like a shooter, changing crossbows and ammo types on the fly to unleash deadly combo attacks on their enemies.
What’s really cool is that Path of Exile 2 will offer two control methods on PC. Players can use the traditional point-and-click system or WASD controls.
Path of Exile 2 will have a significantly improved graphics and physics engine. In addition, 19 new ascension classes will appear in the game. These characters are a new set of exiles that fall into the same class archetypes as in the original game.
It’s also worth noting that Path of Exile 2 will no longer be an expansion of Path of Exile 1. Instead, Path of Exile 2 will be a new standalone game with separate game balance, systems, and future expansions.
