Considering how the Exiles could travel two thousand years into the past thanks to the help of Alva Valai, one master alongside other iconic characters from other Leagues, Ultimatum could feature time travel once again. Another option is that corruption may have spread throughout the lands of Wraeclast and Oriath, making the obelisk-like statues appearing in the video hold an area where players have to deal with them and POE Currency. In fact, the obelisks seem to encircle an area in red and black smoke. This could either mean that Exiles are going to be trapped inside until all enemies are slain, or the obelisks could each come with different modifiers that apply to the enclosed area they are in.

In this new expansion, Doryani is undoubtedly the point that players are most concerned about. Knowing it, players can understand what the entire new league is talking about. The statues appear to have some unique characteristics, which could mean there are going to be several diverse encounters, much like there were in Path of Exile Ritual and Path of Exile Heist. We see these artefacts of the past emerging from the ground in the teaser trailer. This could be relevant information, as players might trigger the encounters simply by stepping into the round-shaped red mist. The mist seems to engulf all enemies within the radius of the obelisks, probably a visual heritage of the area modifiers given upon Exalted Orb.

The trailer also shows the inside of a structure that looks like a shrine or some kind of temple. The ambience seems ominously suggestive of a boss encounter likely to be facing Doryani himself. In fact, the temporal incursions took place in small rooms deep inside the Temple of Atzoatl, an ever-changing dungeon that players could create by traveling back in time. The trailer finally ends with the logo for Path of Exile 2 slowly fading in.

Players also need to adapt to the pace and gameplay of the new expansion as quickly as possible and buy more POE Currency to promote their own development so that they can lay a solid foundation for better achievements in the future. Come on!
