Path of Exile 2 has been selling like hotcakes. Since it’s a multiplayer online game, there are bound to be issues cropping up. Besides being unable to even reach the server due to the sheer number of players, some fans have not been able to play PoE 2 due to not having access. This error occurs for players who purchased the Steam version. When trying to log in, they may encounter the dreaded “your account doesn’t have access to Path of Exile 2” bug.
PoE 2 Your Account Does Not Have Access Error Solution
The “your account does not have access to Path of Exile 2 Early Access” error occurs when your Steam account doesn’t have the Steam Client Key. I have also encountered this bug since I attempted to log in right after the game was released. For me, the problem was caused by the website being down. This wasn’t ideal since you must access it to claim the key. Luckily, the developer quickly fixed this issue and most players could enter the game.
If you are one of the unlucky few who still encounter the “your account does not have access to PoE 2 Early Access” error, you need to follow these steps:
- Create or log into your Path of Exile account.
- Enter your profile by clicking your username on the top left corner.
- Select the Manage Account option under your profile picture.
- Link your Steam account to your Path of Exile account.
- Go back to your profile page and select Path of Exile 2 Early Access.
- Claim your Steam Client Key.
That should fix your issue and allow you to enter the game. If you still get the “your account does not have access to Path of Exile 2 Early Access” error, you should contact GGG’s customer support. They will help you solve this issue as soon as possible.
Remember that the game is still in early access. Things are rather hectic due to the servers having to handle over one million players. Try to exercise patience if you encounter any other errors while playing this game.
