The world of Guild Wars 2 is getting ready for Halloween with a major content update coming on October 22. “Be prepared for an epic adventure in four acts”, running until October 31, ArenaNET says on this page detailing the update.
Halloween decorations, mini-games and dynamic events will accompany “Shadow of the Mad King,” the first major game release for Guild Wars 2. From its description, it sounds like a ghost hunt, for the 250-year-old spirit of Mad King Thorn.
Wccftech talked to Guild Wars 2 Game Director Josh Davis about the learnings from the Secrets of the Obscure expansion and what's coming to the MMORPG.
The "slippery slope" debate has started, now we wait to see what ArenaNet does.
"ArenaNet and NCSOFT are today very happy and excited to announce that they have just released the "Secrets of the Obscure" expansion for their award-winning and critically acclaimed MMORPG "Guild Wars 2"." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Anet also announced the 5th expansion. "We’ve already started applying lessons from the development of Guild Wars 2: Secrets of the Obscure to our fifth expansion, which we expect to be released next year." From their site, been with this game since 1st beta, and announcing the 5th expansion so soon, the game is doing very well, plus the graphics are improved a bit now that it's on DX11🙃
