Massive Guild Wars 2 contents revealed!

Naoroji from the Guildwars2guru.com forums took the liberty of translating the Guild Wars 2 article from Dutch gaming magazine PCGameplay. The said article was an interview packing with information regarding the 2010 sequel, Guild Wars 2.

The game is set 250 years after the events of Guild Wars 1, but this time fighting against a new threat called the Elder Dragons. Players now have access to five different races, compared to the first game that allowed only humans. Each race will have unique racial skills and characteristics that clearly diversifies the playing field.

An addition to the game is the presence of companions or henchmen to accompany players during solo adventures. These henchmen are similar to the first game’s Heroes, but does not take up a party slot. The party slots can be used instead by other players who would want to join the adventure.

The MMORPG’s best feature, PvP, is not to be dismissed either. This Guild Wars sequel has combined RTS elements to its siege battles. Taking advantage of the terrain, and additional defense mechanisms like catapults are key elements to winning. Also, Guild Wars 2 has integrated a “World PvP” system. This is a server versus server PvP battle, enabling every single player across all servers to participate in a massive battle.
