[Bug] Character stuck on loading screen - possibly related to "The Glade" zone
|
Hello,
(Please note: I do not speak English, so I am using AI to translate this post. I hope it is understandable.) I wanted to report a bug I am currently experiencing. My situation: One of my characters is stuck and cannot be loaded. The game crashes every time I try to load this specific character from the character select screen. All other characters work fine. After some testing I noticed that this seems to happen when a character is logged out inside the zone "The Glade". I tried loading a second character into that zone and now that character is also stuck in the same way. This might just be specific to my account or situation - I am not sure if others are affected the same way. What I have tried: CTRL + ENTER on character select screen ✗ Restarting the game ✗ Loading other characters ✓ (works fine) Affected characters: 2 Platform: PC I have already contacted support. Could someone please take a look at my character data? Thank you Last edited by hyperkalio#8924 on Mar 18, 2026, 10:51:33 AM Last bumped on Mar 18, 2026, 10:51:09 AM

Hey everyone,
I wanted to share an update on my issue where my characters were crashing to the main menu when trying to load into The Glade zone. What fixed it: Deleted the ShaderCache folders from %AppData%\Path of Exile 2\ Ran Steam's "Verify Integrity of Game Files" (Right-click PoE2 → Properties → Installed Files) After both steps the characters loaded in perfectly fine – issue is completely resolved! 🎉 Last edited by hyperkalio#8924 on Mar 18, 2026, 2:25:35 PM
