Path of Exile 2
How can we talk about Diablo IV without mentioning the reigning free-to-play ARPG champ that launched into Steam Early Access at the end of 2024? Path of Exile 2 is a monolith in the genre, with the most impressive, yet daunting, passive skill tree in history, a genuinely massive build variety, multiple end-game modes, and a challenging story mode that borrows from the ever-growing Soulslike genre. You can easily spend 100 hours per character, and there are six of them already in Early Access.
