Guild Wars is a Competitive Online Role Playing Game with an emphasis on rewarding player skill. In large head-to-head guild battles, cooperative group combat, and single player missions, players will explore a fantasy world while pursuing professions and acquiring skills to develop their own personalized character. Unique items, special abilities, and a wide variety of skills add meaningful value for the player and for their comrades. Missions are not scripted adventures, but are open battlegrounds where victory is determined by skill and teamwork.

FREE online play that is safe and secure

Guild Wars is an online game with NO online fees. Starting the game automatically connects the player to a secure server-hosted game; while our streaming technology allows us to fix exploits quickly and seamlessly.

Compete on skill not time

Whether battling against monsters to fulfill a quest, or working with guild mates to reach the highest levels of tournament play, Guild Wars rewards players more for gaming skills than for the number of hours played.

It's about always having fun

Guild Wars is focused on what's fun in a role-playing game: fighting monsters, playing with and against other players, completing quests, and finding that next great item. Negative aspects like travel time, high death penalties, spawn camping, and loot stealing have been removed.

Never be separated from your friends

Because the value of each player in a group is based on skill, a new player can quickly learn and play productively with friends.

A world of many but an individual story

Multiplayer towns provide access to other players for social interaction and item trading. When adventuring, players select a mission that spawns uniquely for them and their group. This combination of a social world with a personal story is unique in the marketplace.
