Many fans are getting impatient to know whenPath of Exile 1update 3.26 will be released. Players have taken to social media to inquire aboutPath of Exile 1news from Grinding Gear Games, as the developer had previously said that updates would come in late February.
A big part ofPath of Exile 2’s successcomes from what Grinding Gear Games accomplished withPoE 1in the first place. The game started as an indie project back in 2006, with a team ofDiablofans who wanted to bring something new to the action RPG genre.PoEwent on to become massively popular, partly because of its deep gameplay system and free-to-play model. The game evolved significantly over the years through updates and player feedback, so much so that at first,PoE 2was just going to be an update forPoE 1, but the developer later decided it was a major overhaul that needed to be a sequel. Even thoughPoE 2is very popular now, longtimePoEplayers still want news about the original game.
With all thebuzz surroundingPath of Exile 2, the game has become GGG’s main priority, prompting fans to take to social media to ask forPoE 1news. In different Reddit posts, players are recalling the last thing the developer said about update 3.26, where GGG told them that news would come in late January. On October 31, the developer posted on its website informing players that update 3.26 would not come in 2024 due to the number of resourcesPoE 2was demanding.
Path of Exile 1 News Is Supposed to Arrive in Late February
However, GGG did promise that the new league would happen at some point, though the release window would remain “flexible” due to the anticipatedchallenges of launchingPath of Exile 2. Then, in a video interview on November 22, game director Jonathan Rogers reassured fans that “there will absolutely be leagues launching” forPoE 1sometime in late February. Rogers admitted that the studio has had to “steal”PoE 1resources to makePoE 2work.

At this point, players are asking for an “announcement of an announcement” just to have a clear idea of when the new update is going to happen. Several players have expressed concerns about howongoing support forPath of Exile 2could undermine the development of the first game, with some even advising the community to buckle up for a July release of the new leagues.
