Path of Exile 2 is out now in early access ahead of its 1.0 launch in the future. Naturally, that means the game will change a lot over the months ahead. While the ARPG will feature three acts of the campaign, a portion of the 12 classes, and additional content, there’s still more to come as time goes on. Though the early access version of Path of Exile 2 went live on December 6, there is a key stipulation to gaining access; the game will eventually be free-to-play, but to play during the early access period, you’ll need to pay up.
You can find out how much you need to pay and other details about Path of Exile 2’s launch in the guide below.
How much is Path of Exile 2 Early Access?
The early access version of Path of Exile 2 costs $30. That $30 is spent on an Early Access Supporter Pack, which gives you a Path of Exile 2 early access key as well as 300 Points and the extended digital soundtrack. The Points can be used to purchase items in the Path of Exile 2 shop and are technically a $30 value on their own.
Of course, the $30 Supporter Pack is the cheapest of the available packs. It’s all you need to gain entry to the early access build, but there are more glamorous options you can purchase as well. These more expensive packs still come with an early access key but also include a number of exclusive microtransactions, cosmetics, and even some physical items.

As you can see, the value of each Supporter Pack is equal to the number of Points you receive in the packs. However, you can earn even more Points in the higher-tier packs if you choose to trade in the physical items, such as the hoodie, t-shirt, art book, etc. The more expensive packs also reward you with more than one early access key, giving you the ability to allow a friend to play for free.
If you buy the $30 Supporter Pack initially, you can always upgrade down the line and receive all the rewards for doing so. This might be a good option for anyone on the fence about Path of Exile 2 at the start.
As a note, there are additional Supporter Packs available to purchase on Path of Exile 2’s website. However, there other packs only offer additional rewards and do not give you an early access key to Path of Exile 2. You should only purchase these other Supporter Packs if you want more in-game items.
If you’re already knee-deep in the game’s dungeons and monsters, or you soon will be, we should also point out we have a long and diverse list of Path of Exile 2 guides ready to aid you on your journey.
