After the success of Guild Wars Factions, the first follow-up game to ArenaNet and NCSoft's hit, Guild Wars, the company has announced that they will be adding a third game to their franchise. This one will be titled Guild Wars Nightfall:

 


ArenaNet Announces Guild Wars Nightfall

Guild Wars Players Invited to Play in Exclusive Player-Versus-Player Event as Beta Testing Launches for Next Guild Wars Campaign

July 18, 2006 (BELLEVUE, WA) – ArenaNet®, developer of the world’s leading subscription-free online roleplaying games Guild Wars® and Guild Wars Factions™, and NCsoft® Corporation, the world’s leading developer and publisher of online computer games, announce today the title of the next game in the award-winning franchise, Guild Wars Nightfall™. Further, Guild Wars Nightfall has entered the beta testing stage and Guild Wars players worldwide are invited to participate in an exclusive, first-look player-versus-player (PVP) event, July 28 – 30, 2006.

During the PVP Preview Event, both Guild Wars and Guild Wars Factions® players will get a first look at Guild Wars Nightfall, and will be able to try out the two new professions being introduced in the game; the Dervish, a scythe-wielding holy warrior, and the Paragon, guardian angel of the Elonian people. In addition to testing out the new professions and arenas, players will also be able to compete for items that will be exchangeable for a variety of rewards throughout the weekend event.

The Guild Wars Nightfall PVP Preview event will kick off on Friday, July 28 at 12:01am PDT and will continue through Sunday, July 30 at 11:59pm PST.

Guild Wars, an instant bestseller worldwide upon its release in April 2005, and Guild Wars Factions, the number one game in both North America and Europe earlier this year, are global online roleplaying games. Guild Wars Nightfall will continue the tradition of inviting players to immerse themselves in an epic storyline centered in a vibrant fantasy setting, build personalized characters, compete in head-to-head battles with players from around the world, and find adventure in missions and quests, in a Guild Wars game unlike any players have seen before.

    durrr the idea all along is that every 2/3 months GW would have a new expansion, except first one which was 6months. Says so even in the faq & all information regarding the lack of monthly fee for GW.

    Durr, have fun paying $49.95 for each "expansion".

    If you had a brain you might have noticed the tactics companies use to get people to buy new expansions (overpowered new classes/items/easier exp/etc), and how said tactics ruin a game.

    Have fun being a moron though.

    you dont know what you are talking about and 2/3 months is ridiculously not true. You arent forced to buy these "new expansions". Get your facts straight.

    I have to say that Anet said all along they would release new add on's every six months starting from the release of Factions.While this may not always be a good thing i think that Guildwars really does need this add on after Factions was a bit of a let down!.As with all add on's its up to you if you buy them and i would rather pay £24:99 once then £10:00 every month.Having said that i am looking forward to the release of the lord of the rings game

    Even though they are releasing new titles at this rate it still remains cheaper than a $15 monthly fee.

    1 game every 6 months=$59.99

    $15 monthly fee over 6 months=$90.00

    seems worth it to me...
