Guild Wars 2: Review in Progress

No more stress tests or beta weekends, head start access is available for those who pre-ordered ArenaNet’s Guild Wars 2, so some can finally play without the looming disappointment of a character wipe. Throughout the coming weeks, expect regular updates to appear below as I check out the launch version for review. I’ll post daily video updates during the work week, showing off how my Norn Guardian is progressing as I level through the 1 – 80 content, take part in World versus World battles and jump into PvP arenas.

There has been a lot of coverage of Guild Wars 2 over the past few years at IGN, so before the review in progress updates begin around the official launch date of August 28, check out everything below for an overview of the game. And if you pre-ordered and are in the early access period now, maybe I’ll see you online. You can also check out my Twitter, where I'll be posting more updates as I play.
