Guild Wars 2 Expansion Launches Today in Janthir Wilds

It’s a packed week ahead with new updates and expansions flooding the MMORPG sphere, initiating today with Guild Wars 2 taking the helm. The Janthir Wilds release is on today, introducing improved land spear combat, previously beta tested, plus a fresh narrative cycle which will be extant in the upcoming triad of updates slated for quarterly release.

The highly anticipated housing attribute of Guild Wars 2, Homesteads, finally arrives in Janthir Wilds. If you aspire to acquire and embellish your new domicile using the novel utilities, simply progress through the primary storyline.

In relation to post-launch expansion amendments, our current blueprint is presented below. Noticeably, one substantial tweak has already been made. Initially, the strategy was to unveil three novel maps during the span of the expansion. It has now escalated to four, with the team electing to neglect the initial plan of bifurcating the third map, and instead, introduce two fresh maps. Both maps will represent a size equivalent to Lake Doric.

It is crucial to acknowledge that roadmaps are always susceptible to adaptations.

In terms of initial events, Twitch Drops will be staged this week until the next, followed by the MMO’s Anniversary Week, and then a series of game events through to November. This includes the fan-favorite, the Mad King celebration.
