Path of Exile 2 0.4.0l Patch Notes (25th May 2026)

Logbooks are the focus of 0.4.0l, the latest patch for Path of Exile 2's Return of the Ancients league, which dropped today. GGG has been iterating on the seafaring exploration loop since 0.5.0 launched, and this update pushes Logbooks further with new discoveries scattered across the ocean map, including Siren Eggs and trapped Wisps.

If you've been island-hopping and feeling like the rewards weren't quite justifying the detours, these changes look like a direct response to that. Grinding Gear Games rarely patches in a vacuum, and the fact that Logbooks are getting this much attention this early into the league suggests player feedback has been loud. I've come to expect that level of responsiveness from GGG, and they keep delivering it.
