New Path Of Exile 2 Update Finally Adds In-Game Market Browser

Path of Exile 2’s next update The Third Edict is set to add a whole new act, region, and plenty of other new content to the game–but it’s the new asynchronous trading system that really has players excited. Grinding Gear Games has shown off the system’s new in-game market browser, just days out from the update drop.

GGG explains in the video that the in-game trade browser wasn’t quite ready to be shown off when the studio did its initial content drop for The Third Edict, but it’s now ready to go. The in-game market browser works similarly to PoE 2’s official trade website, allowing players to search for items they want in the player-to-player trade system. The new asynchronous trade system means the seller no longer has to be online for a trade to take place–buyers can now purchase it directly from the seller’s Hideout.

The seemingly simple feature brings a major quality-of-life improvement for PoE 2 players, simplifying what was previously a fairly involved, multi-step process into an easier task. The asynchronous trade system is set to come to the original Path of Exile in future too, provided its integration into PoE 2 goes smoothly.

As a whole, The Third Edict update is full of quality-of-life changes, with the GGG devs setting out to take “a good crack at solving every problem people are currently unhappy about,” as game director Johnathan Rogers said in a Q&A. The update also includes the addition of Act IV, new endgame content, a sprint ability, PoE 2’s first league, and heaps more.

Despite the massive update, Path of Exile 2 doesn’t seem likely to leave early access–or subsequently going free-to-play–anytime soon. The developers have said it doesn’t look possible for PoE 2 to get to a full release in 2025, and how long it remains in early access after that it will depend on the state of the game.

The Third Edict releases on August 29, and PoE 2 will have a free access weekend from August 29 to September 1 along with the update’s launch.
