Tencent To Publish Path Of Exile In China

Following Path of Exile's success in the West—with over 17,500 concurrent users online right now—Tencent has announced that it will be publishing the game in China. The Tencent version will be made available later this year in simplified Chinese. The game's servers will be hosted in China, separate from Grinding Gear Games' existing servers. Due to the separation of servers, Chinese players on Grinding Gear Games' servers will be given the choice of staying where they are or switching over when Tencent officially launches the game in China.

The Tencent version will enter Alpha testing in May. You can find more information on the official website.
