Path of Exile: Settlers of Kalguur Launch Leads to Over 229,000 Concurrent Players on Steam

As a seasoned gamer with hundreds of hours clocked into Path of Exile, I can’t help but be utterly thrilled by Grinding Gear Games’ latest expansion, Settlers of Kalguur. The sheer volume of content and life-enhancing features have brought this free-to-play titan to new heights, with record-breaking Steam player numbers peaking at an astonishing 229,337.


Last Friday saw the release of Grinding Gear Games’ newest expansion for “Path of Exile,” titled “Settlers of Kalguur.” This addition is packed with an enormous quantity of content and user-friendly enhancements, such as a Currency Exchange Market. As a result, the player count on Steam for this free-to-play game has reached an all-time high, peaking at 229,337 during this current writing session.

In “Settlers of Kalguur,” a fresh town-building mechanism is presented where players play a role in helping build Kingsmarch, a future location in “Path of Exile 2.” Players can identify resources, assign laborers to gather them, establish trading routes, and protect the town from invasions.

Furthermore, there are numerous other enhancements introduced, including an upgraded melee combat system, a revamped Gladiator with fresh skills for defensive playstyles, and the Warden Ascendancy. Notably, these advancements come alongside better performance for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S users, novel encounters in maps of Tier 16 and 17, and many other exciting developments.

Sadly, the latest Currency Exchange Market is only accessible to the residents of Kalguur at present. The creator is keeping a close eye on its performance and prospects for further expansion. Keep an eye out for future announcements in the interim.
