Path of Exile Patch 1.63 Released Today

Despite making a good chunk of new content available every three months, the Path of Exile team normally releases little patches and fixes in between as well. Patch 1.63 hit the PS4 today, and it brings a few welcome updates and fixes. For improvements, one example is that the “Blueprint Heist Targets which are Item Rewards now generate 1 to 3 item levels higher than the area level.”
The bug fixes are many. It’s a collection of a few crash fixes and general bug smashery. I’ll put the full list of patch notes pulled from the Path of Exile forum post at the bottom, so you can see what’s new and improved.

• You can now remove currency from the trade market while in the Rogue Harbour.
