Elon Musk approves: Path of Exile 2 has received a major update and a handy name change feature

Path of Exile 2's latest update, 0.1.1c, addresses several key issues and introduces notable improvements. The Grinding Gear Games team detailed the fixes and additions implemented.

Here's a summary of the changes:

• Bug Fixes: The update resolves a bug preventing access to the Cartwalker Machine after character transfers from solo league. Various local cooperative mode bugs have been squashed, preventing Player 2 from accessing Player 1's UI elements (like high-level maps) and improving movement between control points.

• Increased Revival Attempts: Players now have up to five revival attempts (depending on difficulty) in several challenging areas: Distorted Possessions, the Olroth boss fight, and the Essence of Nonexistence realm. Dying before defeating the Host in The Mists will now revive players in the boss arena, restarting the encounter.

• Character Renaming: A convenient new feature allows players to rename their characters via the official website.

Despite some initial launch challenges, Path of Exile 2 remains a Steam chart-topper. Grinding Gear Games' commitment to post-launch support is evident in this substantial update, demonstrating their dedication to improving the player experience.
