Is this thing on

This game has been an absolute blast to play but with a few months gap in play, I'm wondering if hopping back online is worth my time. Is it active? Are there updates? I don't even know if I need an update to play the game, but when I played last there seemed to be an issue with matchmaking where either it was a fully bot lobby or I was against people way way way more skilled than I. This wasn't what took me away from the game, however. I think Path of Exile 2 swept me off my feet and that was that.
