Mark your calendars.
Guild Wars 3 was today announced at Summer Game Fest, currently planning a beta test in 2027.
“Guild Wars 3 is a new era not just for ArenaNet and Guild Wars, but also for MMORPGs as a whole” said Colin Johanson, Guild Wars 3 Game Director and ArenaNet Studio Head.
“The MMORPG genre has millions of players worldwide eager for new, modern experiences, and the opportunity to harness that excitement is immense. Our approach with Guild Wars 3 is to push MMORPGs forward, to create an online game world that feels believable, rewarding, responsive, and innovative while at the same time respecting players’ time and providing a positive, supportive space to build community and enjoy new stories in our universe.”
“Players will assume the role of a Vaelwarden, a member of a guild of adventurers committed to preserving and protecting both the spirits of the wild and the land of Orr itself,” ArenaNet continued.
“Through the deep character customization and skill-building gameplay the Guild Wars franchise is known for, players will seek adventure and confront danger across this sumptuous, vibrant online world, growing their relationships with the spirits of the wild, the inhabitants of Orr, and other Vaelwarden players.”
Expect Guild Wars 3 on Windows PC via Steam and PS5.
