Will there be a way to transfer purchases from PoE1 on psn to PoE2 on pc?
I used to play PoE on my old ps4 and about i just finished building a pc so i can play PoE2 once it comes out. But i've wondered all this time, since it's well known that you can't transfer your mtx from psn to pc for the first game. But will it be possible for 2, since there might be a lot of people who switch to pc for it? I know it's kinda hopium but i kinda dont wanna leave my supporters packs behind, not to mention stash tabs.

Fortunately, the current plan is for all players to have a single game account for both games across all platforms. You would not only be able to keep your purchases, but progress the same character across both PlayStation and PC. That is Grinding Gear's hope and what they are working towards.
CAVEAT: the platform holders - specifically Sony - are not necessarily on board with this plan. Grinding Gear is negotiating with them on the matter, but as of the last we heard on the subject they cannot guarantee that the platform holders will allow them to do this. They very much want to, and the one-account thing is happening regardless. That's the primary reason for the recent delay. But your PlayStation entitlements may be restricted to PlayStation usage if Sony doesn't relent. Sorry about that. Last edited by 1453R#7804 on Nov 8, 2024, 3:59:44 PM

i think you need to wait until the announcement before you find out, i tend to side on the "it won't happen" side of that fence for the reasons that 1453R has already stated, MS then Sony came to the same sort of terms first time round when GGG went to publish on their platforms i don't really see it changing, even though i think MS and sony would make more money if they allowed it.

NO is the reply I got from 4 different GGG employees.
I believe it has nothing to do with SONY in terms of a one time transfer. I’ve begged and pleaded with GGG to transfer my support pack cosmetics from PSN to PC for POE 2 and they’ve confirmed that they will NOT allow my PSN cosmetics purchased to be used on PC for POE 2. I pray they allow us to transfer to PC. It’s truly a shame. I have all of my mtx purchases made on PSN and just recently got back into the game and don’t even own a PlayStation anymore. I got back and read that they transfer. They inFACT DO NOT transfer to POE 2 PC. They’re stuck on psn forever. Atleast that’s what 4 employees from GGG told me. |

" Support Staffer are not dev, they probably not receiving the latest canned message template According to this thread https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3586288 Once the patch is up (Monday), except Sony, you can move purchase from one subaccount to another This is the start of forum signature: I am not a GGG employee.

Yeah feels like a scam not being able to use psn mtx on PC, thankfully it's only a $30 scam for me, there are users who wasted alot more money on psn and i feel bad for them

PoE is impossible to play on PSN's servers from EU. For years now, the servers have lags and spike frequently to a point where this is genuinely unplayable.
GGG has done nothing to solve this -can they even? Now with the mtx mergers and Sony blocking left right and center, i would ask GGG kinldy to offer a transfer-copy of all mtx from PS to PC ideally for free or at a set fee (reflecting additional work load per request per player, fairly evaluated). |

Here’s our answer as a PSN player who now plays PC.
Stop buying as many support packs from GGG. I will just be either moving on or paying the absolute bare minimum. In the past I’d just throw money at GGG because I thought they were great and I’d like some cosmetics or I’d buy stash tabs for my friends who just start ALL THE TIME. now I’ll only make the bare minimum purchase required to make the game playable and won’t encourage my friends to make purchases. Let alone buy their tabs anymore. To me money isn’t the issue. I don’t care about losing stash tabs. What I care about is SUPPORTER Cosmetics. In a cosmetics junkies universe, this is the absolute worst thing that could possibly happen. I will NEVER invest into cosmetics with this game again. Fool me once shame on you. Imagine if they told PC players that Xbox and PSN players could carry over ALL of the support packs and MTX but not pc players. This would be an entirely different story. I supported GGG. I didn’t purchase a SONY support pack. I purchased a pack that Supported GGG. Clearly my support didn’t matter enough for them to create a solution.
