There has been a patch you need to update to. Please restart Path of Exile

Hey there!

Today I got an error "There has been a patch you need to update to. Please restart Path of Exile". I'm playing from the Steam.

Partially helps to double-check game file via steam but after restart steam I get this issue again.

I've just delete DXcache from windows storage options it fixes for me or its just a coincidence i dont know.For whose using Win11:

Starup->Settings->System->Storage->Temporary Files

Uncheck all boxes except "DirectX Shader Cache".

And it fixed for me. But it could be a coinsidence cuz it was validating once more while i was doing this.

confirm that fixed for me
Same issue, cant get into the game. It keeps saying theres a new patch and when restarting it starts to verify game files only to tell me there´s a new patch again. Loop.
I also found interesting issue. Game clock is not equal system clock (2 hours gap): https://ibb.co/qYfYDnGD
Maybe there was some issue on steam side because I was also stucked in this patch loop but now it let me ingame, hope it works from now without any problems.
