Next weekend, PAX South will take place, and ArenaNet has let a few cats out of the bag – or rather, opened the bag. Most people are sure: On January 24th, the developers will announce the long-awaited addon for Guild Wars 2 .
Low Price and Double XP
Anyone who has hesitated to purchase the MMO should rethink their decision. From Saturday to Monday, GuildWars 2 will cost only €9.99, provided you buy it through the official website. Additionally, there will be double experience points all weekend in Tyria – so this is the perfect time to jump into the game or finally level that one annoying twink you could never motivate yourself to play.
A Major Announcement?
The signs of an upcoming GW2 addon are becoming more and more apparent:
- Why else would one say from the outset that it will be a “big show” without revealing concrete details?
- What else could have prompted the developers to temporarily reduce the price of the game by 75%?
- Why are investors expecting extremely increased revenues?
- Why did they recently secure the name “Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns“?
In a few days, we will have the answer, and all signs clearly point to the announcement of the first expansion. Those who want to be part of the big presentation live just need to tune into the stream at www.twitch.tv/guildwars2 – it starts on Saturday at 5 PM.
