Let’s cut to the chase. If you’re picking one hack-and-slash to play in 2026, it’s the free-to-play king, Path of Exile 2. And if this is your very first one, I’d point you to Torchlight II or Diablo IV, both of which scored 88 for accessibility. Once you fall down the hack-and-slash rabbit hole, there’s…
