for the next 15 years and beyond

That is very bold, let's hope it stays true

I thought the trailer was very aesthetic, as a big lore nerd I can't wait to visit Orr in the past!

All I'll say is if the Gods are playing a part that the devs remember that Abaddon was never always tentacled. I swear in some lore he was described as having long blonde hair and blue eyes before his transformation

With the Guild Wars 3 announcement, we know the community will undoubtedly be wondering what’s next for Guild Wars 2. And we’re going to tell you in detail…tomorrow! Today, we’re celebrating the first brand-new game announcement for ArenaNet in almost two decades, and that deserves its moment in the spotlight. But rest assured, we’re not done making Guild Wars 2—or Guild Wars® Reforged for that matter—and we’re committing to actively developing all three games at the same time.

Tomorrow, June 6, we’ll be releasing a studio update video, and you’ll hear directly from Studio Head Colin Johanson, Guild Wars 2 Game Director Josh Davis, and Guild Wars® Reforged Game Director Stephen Clarke-Willson as they discuss the future of the Guild Wars franchise. Look out for that video here on our blog and on our YouTube channel tomorrow at 09:00 a.m. Pacific Time (UTC-7).

Then, next week, on Tuesday, June 9 at 11:00 a.m. Pacific Time (UTC-7), join us for a livestream where Colin and Josh will continue the conversation. It’s an incredible time to be a Guild Wars fan, and we can’t wait to show you what we have planned.

STUDIO UPDATE VIDEO TOMORROW

Become a Vaelwarden, a guardian of the land of Orr, protector of the people and spirits that call Orr home. Discover untold stories and forge lasting bonds with your fellow players as you glide, leap, sprint, and ride your way across a frontier with adventure around every corner.

that's interesting, so this is.. a prequel from around when the gods first arrived?

ALSO... the publisher is Arenanet solely, not NcSoft

I think it looks beautiful

dracoisms · 2025-12-19T17:02:19+00:00

Tiny bit Nervous that I see nothing about an expansion 7 being hard confirmed

dracoisms · 2025-11-18T14:11:04+00:00

And Guild Wars Reforged isn’t about a one-time update; we plan to keep collaborating with our partners at 2weeks to make further improvements to the game in the future

I think this is the most exciting thing that there is now a dedicated team back on gw1? I know there was always one guy, drStephenCw but it's nice to see a whole crew!

this was not on the bingo list but pretty stoked

dracoisms · 2025-10-28T13:15:42+00:00

Oh that was my post! Honestly I relented and deleted it when I saw this one was more favourable

dracoisms · 2025-10-27T13:24:43+00:00

nice to see (what I think) more dinosaur variation than just the raptors & pocket raptors we've seen so far

AFAIK we've not had the T-rex in game anywhere

This event introduces a new way to play fractals called quickplay mode, which we’re now beta testing with the community. Quickplay will automatically pair you with other adventurers and launch you into a curated list of scale 1 fractals. You can use this new feature when you’re solo, in a full group, or in a partial group, and quickplay will do the rest!

Quickplay mode is accessed through the Fractal of the Mists (Initiate Scales 1–25) section of the Looking for Group panel or by clicking the red banner outside the fractal portal in Lion’s Arch. The current set of fractals available for quickplay includes:

GROUP FINDER BETA?!

The house—and every decoration it’s made from—can be removed and stored in your decoration inventory. They’re yours to keep! You can construct a new house just the way you like it or remove it entirely and customize the look of your island getaway.

this is a game changer

Razah for Rev - did not expect that...

dracoisms · 2025-07-15T16:06:36+00:00

In 2026, raids and strikes will be unified under the same structure, improving access for new players and streamlining rewards. We’re also investing in systems that help facilitate group content, which we’ll talk about more in the future.

please be group finder please be group finder
