Checked against GGG's announcements on 2 Nov 2026, 14:30 UTC.
The Covens of Umbra reveal airs on Friday 6 November 2026 at 12:30 PM PST: 20:30 UTC, 9:30 PM in Berlin and 9:30 AM on Saturday in Auckland, where ExileCon is held. Watch it free on GGG's Twitch or YouTube channel. On the night of the keynote this page gets our recap of the Path of Exile 1 announcements.
ExileCon 2026 in four facts
- ExileCon 2026 runs on 7 and 8 November in Auckland, New Zealand: 6 and 7 November in the Americas and Europe
- The ExileCon broadcast with the next Path of Exile 1 expansion starts on 6 November at 12:30 PM PST (20:30 UTC)
- GGG streams it free on Twitch (twitch.tv/pathofexile) and YouTube (@playpathofexile)
- Covens of Umbra launches one week later, on 13 November PST
When the 3.30 reveal starts
GGG's announcement of 1 November asks players to tune in on 6 November at 12:30 PM PST (GGG, Covens of Umbra announcement). In most of Europe that is Friday evening; in Asia and Oceania it is Saturday morning. The table on this page converts it to your zone.
ExileCon itself runs for two days, 7 and 8 November, New Zealand time, in Auckland (GGG, ExileCon 2026 tickets). The Path of Exile 1 keynote falls on the first day.
Where to watch
Live on twitch.tv/pathofexile and on YouTube at @playpathofexile. Watching is free; in-person tickets were sold in waves earlier in the year.
GGG ran Twitch Drops on the reveal streams of Mirage and Curse of the Allflame and posted the details a day or two in advance, so its news forum is worth a look on 5 and 6 November.
What a Path of Exile 1 reveal usually includes
At the last two reveals GGG showed the league mechanic, the main Atlas and endgame changes and new skills and items, then published an announcement post and the full patch notes. For Mirage the announcement went up at 19:00 UTC on 26 February 2026 and the patch notes three hours later; for Curse of the Allflame at 20:56 UTC on 16 July and 23:00 UTC.
This time the reveal is seven days before launch instead of eight, so expect the run-up posts on gems, item filters and challenge rewards to come close together.
What was shown at ExileCon 2026
Our recap goes here on the night of 6 November, Pacific time: the Covens of Umbra mechanic in plain words, Atlas and endgame changes, new skills and items, and dates for anything that comes later. Until the keynote this part stays empty rather than guessing.
