Q: What can you tell us at the moment about plans to bring new content into the game, either via a free download or for a paid expansion pack?
A: Our live content team has been working on exciting new game elements since before the game launched. Later this summer we will stream the (Sorrow's Furnace) expansion to all players for no charge. This free live content will contain two large explorable areas, with new quests, new monsters and new items to discover. We will also be introducing some cool new technology into the game, such as a global Observer Mode, which will allow players throughout the world to watch key guild and tournament battles as they are being played. And of course we will continue to refine and add new game mechanics, such as PvP rewards, which will allow players who primarily enjoy PvP to build characters and obtain new skills and items.
In the first half of 2006 we plan to release Guild Wars Chapter 2, which will include even more cool stuff. All chapters are 100% optional and players won't be required to purchase any chapter to play the game.
