It seems like it'll actually be radically different, and there's no way it's coming out until like at least 2026.
It's actually an upgraded version of the same engine, and Path of Exile 1 is getting a lot of the new tech backported.
It was originally supposed to replace Path of Exile 1, but now they are going to exist together.
2 will be more refined and slower, with a brand new story and 6 new acts. Should be a fun time.
I believe the acts themselves will be longer and more fleshed out but there's less of them.
6 acts in Path of Exile 2 instead of the 10 acts that PoE1 has.
