Guild Wars 2 redefines massively multiplayer online roleplaying games with visceral, action-oriented combat; a gorgeous, living world full of constantly evolving dynamic events; customizable personal storylines that are unique to each player; intense Player vs. Player combat between small teams or massive armies; and most importantly, a shared online world where players work together as allies instead of as rivals — all with no monthly subscription fee.
The dragon cycle that has sustained and blighted Tyria for ages is collapsing. Mortal hearts and choices will define this moment in history—and echo in the future forever.
Over two centuries ago, the Empire of the Dragon severed all bonds with central Tyria and Elona. Cantha has its own history of turmoil and triumph, reflected in ancient landmarks, enduring artistry, and modern life.
The second chapter of Guild Wars 2: Janthir Wilds quarterly expansion content launches March 11 and brings with it a bevy of new rewards and challenging activities to stand alongside a new map: the Mistburned Barrens. Deep inside the ruins of Bava Nisos is the Mists gate that brought the otherworldly titans into Tyria. Players will delve into the mysteries of the mysterious mursaat, long a source of legend stretching back to the original Guild Wars, and contend with their arcane experiments that rendered their lands riven by spectral agony and bloodstone magic.
Repentance will contain a multitude of new rewards, including a new weapon and armor set, six new relics for more character build possibilities, a refresh to the offerings in the Wizards Vault, new minipets, and new Homestead recipes that can be earned by completing in-game achievements. A new Mursaat Shadowcraft mastery track will aid players in their exploration of Repentance as they seek out the far corners of the new map.
Additionally, the titan Greer will be added to the Janthir Wilds Convergence gameplay mode, beginning alternating boss rotations for players to test their mettle in the challenging 50-player activity. A more difficult challenge mode will be available in the Mount Balrior raid (first introduced in November’s content update), with the most prestigious rewards available to players who can complete it.
Repentance is free for all players who purchased Janthir Wilds. A final update will follow in the coming months to conclude the expansion adventure.
Guild Wars 2 is currently available for PC.
