Path of Exile Gets New Trailer And Screenshots

Grinding Gear Games, makers of the upcoming action role-playing game Path of Exile currently in open beta, opened the flood gates today and unleashed a full torrent of screenshots and other images to allow people check out more about their title.

While some people may look at the screenshots and be tempted to write Path of Exile off as merely another Diablo clone, be assured that fans of Torchlight and other action RPGs of this nature should not merely pass it by.  Path of Exile boasts several features that not even the folks at Blizzard have been able to nail down yet, including PvP tournaments and what they claim to be the “deepest item system in any action RPG.”

According to Grinding Gear Games, here are the key features of Path of Exile:

• A dark and deep action RPG
• Build unlimited unique characters on a gigantic skill tree
• Combine over 110 skill gems to create unique combat strategies
• Explore a dark and gritty world rendered from a fixed 3D perspective
• Download and play for free, but never ‘pay-to-win’
• Explore randomly generated levels for extreme replayability
• Craft weapons, magic items and even end-game maps to become more powerful
• Cooperate or compete with thousands of other exiles in a persistent online world
• Ascend online ladders in every game mode
• Battle in PVP tournaments for worldwide recognition
