UPDATE 2: Path of Exile 3.22 Trial of the Ancestors has officially launched and is now live!

UPDATE: The queue for Path of Exile 3.22 Trial of the Ancestors is live as of 2:20 p.m ET.

The next Path of Exile league, PoE 3.22 Trial of the Ancestors, is just around the corner. A new league start is always exciting, so it’s important to know when PoE servers go live to hit the ground running. Knowing when the league goes live also gives you time to pick the best league starter build. If you’re a veteran player, you may also want to check out the new league patch notes for any big changes.

Thankfully, Grinding Gear Games usually makes PoE updates available several hours before launch, so you can download and install the patch early. Keep an eye on Steam for the next update so you can be ready to go when the league starts.

So for those of you looking to get in as soon as servers open, you’re probably wondering, when is the Path of Exile (PoE) 3.22 League start time?

Path of Exile (PoE) 3.22 League start time

The new Path of Exile league, Trial of the Ancestors, goes live for PC and Mac on August 18 at 4 p.m. ET. Typically speaking, you can log in to join the queue about 20-30 minutes before the servers go live. Then, once the game is online, players can connect to the servers in their queue order.

Over the years, the Path of Exile servers have come a long way in terms of efficiency and wait times. If you don’t join in right at launch, the line usually clears within 15-20 minutes after the league starts. At that point, any sort of queue only lasts a couple of minutes. And after a few hours, there is no wait at all.

If you’re looking to play PoE 3.22 on PlayStation or Xbox, you’ll have to wait one week before jumping in. Path of Exile Trial of the Ancestors console league begins August 23 at 8 p.m. ET.
