In case you didn’t know, Grinding Gear Games’ hugely successful free-to-play RPG Path of Exile is coming to PS4. While it was originally set to come out within the year, Grinding Gear Games announced that the Path of Exile PS4 release date has been delayed to February 2019!

The studio post a message on the game’s official forums, which you can read below.

When we announced Path of Exile for PlayStation 4 earlier this month, we indicated we were aiming for a December release. Unfortunately, we have had to revise this to early February. We are extremely sorry for the inconvenience this causes, because we know there are many players looking forward to this release. 

We underestimated the amount of work it would take to finish the certification process during the busy Christmas period. While we hope to have everything ready in January, we feel a lot more comfortable promising early February as a target release window. This will also give us time to work on game performance/frame rate, which we feel could be improved before release. 

Again, we’re very sorry about this. We understand that many PlayStation users were keen to play Betrayal over Christmas and have been eagerly awaiting release date news. We promise that Path of Exile will be awesome on PlayStation 4 when it is released early next year.

Given how successful the game has been on Xbox One, PS4 gamers should have something special coming their way early next year.
