POE 2 Infinite loading screen

this mostly happens on entering any maps sometimes and the worst part is that even if i restart the game, infinite loading still persist up to 3 times of restarting the game wow

Still happening on Xbox. I can’t go anywhere without infinite loading screen.

Character name zskaewt

I am having the same issue. Entering the map portal and getting stuck in loading screen with cogs turning but no transition to the actual content. I can hear things going on in the game, but I am in perma-loadscreen.

I subsequently logged into another character, and (surprise) this character is now stuck in the loading screen of same instance also!! I don't have a third character that has access to endgame. I have tried all the usual hacks like clearing cache, changing region, restarting PS5, reloading game, etc. Nada.

All I can see here are endless posts on the same issue but no definitive answer. I am lvl 92 and a huge amount of time has gone into the game. Help!
