3.7.0 will introduce a new league with a focus on "repeatable fun", apparently, as well as revamped melee combat. That's what the team's focusing on at the moment, aiming to get the fundamental stuff nailed down as early as possible in the development cycle. Then there's the 4.0.0 mega-expansion POE currency trade , which is taking up a lot of Grinding Gear's time. It's a critical update, explains Wilson.

On top of the future updates, there's the ExileCon convention due later this year, which will be used to properly announced 4.0.0, and then the game's launch in Korea.

"All of these areas, from 3.7.0 through to the eventual release of 4.0.0, are going to make massive and lasting fundamental improvements to Path of Exile," Wilson added. But not at the cost of the team's health.

While players have been critical of Synthesis, the response on Reddit to Wilson's post has been overwhelmingly supportive.

But on September 6, Path of Exile is doing just that with Blight, the next quarterly 'league' expansion for Path Of Exile, Grinding Gear Games' popular free-to-play dungeon crawl. Like all previous leagues, Blight is a free update bringing new systems to wrestle with, loot to hoard, and a weird hybrid tower defense mode—if you're willing to start a fresh character, that is.
