Guild Wars 2 – The Next Story Expansion
Genre: MMORPG | Developer: ArenaNet | Platform: PC | Release Date: August 28, 2012 | Model: Buy2Play | USK: 12
What is Guild Wars 2? Guild Wars 2 is an MMORPG from ArenaNet that was released in 2012 and has continuously been expanded since then. It is primarily aimed at “casual players” who enjoy exploring the world and experiencing a story as a hero.
In the world of Guild Wars 2, many dangers lurk in the form of world bosses and massive events. There are also many side challenges like jumping puzzles, achievements, and map exploration.
Highlights of Guild Wars 2
Guild Wars 2 offers regular content updates in the form of the living world. The MMORPG receives new areas, new story chapters, and new content like armor or weapon skins.
The special aspect of GW2 is that the level remains constant. Since release, you can only progress to level 80, and the gear level has not been increased since 2012. What you earned back then is still relevant and useful today.
With the two expansions, new vertical progression has been added in the form of abilities like gliding, jumping mushrooms, and mounts, ensuring veterans still have something to do.
Why should you play Guild Wars 2 in January?
In the roadmap for the first quarter of 2020, the developers announced the next chapter of the Icebrood Saga. Therefore, there will again be new stories, tasks, and a new area expansion in the game.
Additionally, at the end of January, the annual Chinese New Year event will take place. It will be expanded for the first time since its introduction in 2013 and should feature additional tasks and rewards.
