Grinding Gear Games has alsoannounceda unique way for long-timePath of Exilefans to get a freePath of Exile 2code. If youspent more than $480 onPath of Exile 1microtransactions, you should automatically qualify for a freePoE 2Early Access code.

You shouldautomaticallyget an email with yourPoE 2Early Access code when the EA launches, but if you have spent the required amount (or purchased a top-tier Supporter pack) and have not received the code, be sure to reach out to Grinding Gear Games support.
Thetotal of $480 in MTXmust have been purchased on the same system, so players who have both console and PC versions of the game must have spent $480 on either of these systems, but not both combined. You can check your microtransaction history on the “Account Transactions” tab of the “My Account” menu on thePath of Exilesite.
Unfortunately, redeemed & free Points do not count toward this total – the $480 is only derived from real-money purchases made in the game. If you meet either of these requirements, the code will be emailed to you on (or around) launch day.
