Endgame is Path of Exile 2 is the epilogue of the storyline's acts, which currently takes place within The Ziggurat Refuge. Here, players are introduced to the Atlas and the endgame map system.

The player and The Hooded One head for Oriath with allies in tow, but by the time they arrived, they were too late - the Beast had awoken and caused a new Cataclysm. Having barely survived, the player takes refuge in the Ziggurat Refuge, yet another one of Doryani's contingency plan. Allying once more with Doryani, the player must traverse the world through the Map Device and cleanse the Corruption spread throughout Wraeclast.
