Grinding Gear Games has released a hotfix and a follow-up restart for Path of Exile 2's 0.5.5f update, fixing problems the update itself introduced. The console version carries the update as version 1.129.

Hideouts

The restart fixes an issue introduced in 0.5.5f where Hideouts previously unlocked through gameplay could become locked again. Shoreline Hideout was notably affected.

Corrupted Precursor Beacon Rewards

The hotfix fixes a bug where Corrupted Precursor Beacon item rewards could fail, and a bug where players did not receive their reward after completing a series of Maps affected by the Corrupted Precursor Beacon. The reward fix does not apply if the original Map chosen for the modifiers has already been opened. Grinding Gear says it is still investigating an issue where players do not receive their reward if they fail the final Map and retry it.

Visual Fix

The restart also fixes a visual bug where the light beams on Maps affected by Corrupted Precursor Beacon item modifiers would sometimes not render temporarily.

The 0.5.5f update itself, released November 6, added support for the upcoming announcement and new Supporter Packs.
