Grinding Gear Games (makers of PoE) released a little state of the game type statement today going over what's going to be coming to PoE over the next few months. We are about a month into Incursion league and I think PoE has really seen an increase in player base. It's really nice to see the developers wanting to keep pushing forward and keep the game pumping.
Update 3.3.1: Incursion Improvements
The 3.3.1 update is scheduled for next week and includes two new series of Incursion rooms (where all past and present variations of a room count as one series). We'll go into more detail about these in the news early next week.
Good to see a little update planned right away. Not totally sure what this will entail just yet but should add a little more spice to the current league.
Update 3.3.2: Partying Improvements
We're planning on releasing the cohesive set of Partying Improvements described by Jonathan in this thread in the 3.3.2 patch in a few weeks. By the time this patch is ready, it will likely contain many other bug fixes and minor features also.
A few quality of life improvements for parties. Seems like the goal is just to make it easier to play with others. Right now PoE is primarily a solo game and it would be cool to have a bit more incentive to play in a party, even with random strangers. Nothing really groundbreaking seems to be in the works but any improvement in the partying area is welcome.
August One-month Event
Around a month before the end of the Incursion league, we're planning to run a community event (similar to what we did with Flashback during Bestiary). More details will be announced once they are locked in.
Cool little mini event on the way in about a months time, should be fun I hope.
September League Release
We can confirm that the next big release, Content Update 3.4.0, has another ambitious large league, with similar development scope to Incursion. This update also contains a set of new skills and skill revamps that have the goal of creating more new and viable builds. While the sheer number of skills affected is lower than in 3.3.0, we expect the changes to still be very impactful. We plan to release 3.4.0 on August 31, with promotion starting three weeks beforehand. Keep an eye out in the news in early August!
And of course a tiny bit of news regarding the next league. Looks like a bunch of buffs coming and probably a whole raft of new builds with it. I'm excited to see what's coming and I hope that PoE keeps staying fresh and adding great new content.
