2023's been an outstanding year for game announcements, and we're not quite done yet—at least for Path of Exile fans. Their big day is almost here as Grinding Gear Games celebrates its ExileCon convention this weekend in Auckland, New Zealand. We don't have a ton of details just yet aside from a pair of snazzy trailers, but here we'll go over what we do know and tell you how you can check out all the streamed news from the convention POE currency trade .

We'll also be getting some information about Path of Exile Mobile, which was delightfully announced at the first ExileCon in November of 2019 with co-founder Jonathan Rogers' line "So, mobile games are kinda bullshit, right?" We don't have release dates for either game, but GGG has confirmed that we'll be getting beta start dates. They will also have a keynote address, dev panels, and interviews with streamers and community figures.
