Upon logging into Path of Exile 2 (PoE 2) on Steam, it is best to log in using an existing GGG account. Check out our guide to learn if you should create an account or link your existing Path of Exile account and if there is a difference between the two.
List of Contents
To avoid complications with downloadable content and microtransactions while having an overall smoother experience for connectivity, linking a GGG account is the best option, existing or not.
It is recommended that you create a GGG account on the website in advance and link your Steam account via the Path of Exile website properly.
If you create a Steam account for Path of Exile 2, you can still link a newly made or existing GGG account. However, you will be prompted the option to permanently merge these accounts, meaning you cannot revert this and add another Steam account of your choice in the future.
To create a Steam Path of Exile account, players simply need to type in an account name in the text box on the left of the screen and this will create your account. After doing so, you will immediately be sent to the Character Selection screen to choose your class!
List of Classes and Ascendancies
To link an existing Path of Exile account with your Steam client, click on the Link button on the screen. This will show a link that you will have to click on as this will redirect you to the official Path of Exile website where you can create an account.
For players seeing an error page, this might be because there are too many players trying to access the site. Try visiting the site at a later time for better connectivity.
To those who would prefer manually linking their account, follow these steps:
To make sure that your account is properly linked, check on the top right dropdown on the character creation screen and see if your current account name matches the same one on the GGG website.
