Path of Exile: Ascendancy Launches March 4th

Path of Exile's long-awaited expansion, Ascendancy, is almost upon us. After keeping us in suspense since last November, Grinding Gear Games have revealed that the expansion will be released on March 4th at 12 PM PST.

The highlight of the expansion is The Lord's Labyrinth. Created by Izaro—pictured above—this labyrinth is randomly generated daily. Six new traps come together to create "elaborate puzzle rooms" within the Labyrinth. Over the course of your run, you will be pitted against Izaro multiple times and your fights against him are said to "evolve depending on your actions in previous encounters."

Also included are 19 "Ascendancy classes," each of which has its own Skill Tree. After each Labyrinth run, you can use part of Izaro's power to imbue an item with an Enchantment. New skills and support gems unlock new "devastating" skills. "Dozens of Unique Items and Divination Cards designed by Path of Exile's community."
