Grinding Gears GamesPath of Exile 2 is celebrating the launch of its Dawn of the Hunt update with a suite of Twitch drops. This guide will break down what the rewards are, when you can get them, and how to add them to your account.
Path of Exile 2 may still be in early access, but it’s already amassed a dedicated community thanks to its wealth of content. The isometric horde slayer draws heavy inspiration from the Diablo franchise, featuring frantic battles and a brutal endgame.
Now, the first major content update, titled Dawn of the Hunt is live, and to celebrate, there are a host of Path of Exile 2 Twitch Drops to unlock. So, here’s all the info you need to make sure you snatch them up.
How to link your Path of Exile and Twitch accounts
The first step to unlocking Path of Exile 2’s Twitch Drops is to link your Path of Exile account to your Twitch account. This can be done quite simply by following these steps in the indicated order:
- Create a Path of Exile account on pathofexile.com
- Log in to your Path of Exile account and head to the Twitch Settings page.
- Click the ‘Connect’ button for Twitch found under ‘Other Connections’.
- This will redirect you to Twitch and you can follow the instructions there to finish linking the two accounts.
- If the link was successful, you’ll see a message that says “Your Path of Exile account is currently linked to your Twitch account.”
Make sure that your Twitch account is linked to the main Path of Exile account that you want the Path of Exile 2 Twitch Drops to go to.

Path of Exile 2’s Twitch Drops work much the same as other Twitch Drops. Just tune in to any streamer playing Path of Exile 2 live and watch three hours of their stream. Once you’ve accumulated the required watch time, you’ll gain access to special rewards for your own playthroughs of the game.
These Twitch Drops will be available for the first two weeks after Dawn of the Hunt goes live. Below, we have the dates and rewards that you can get during this period.
