ArenaNet announces Guild Wars 3!
Summer Games Fest 2026
One of the largest gaming events of the year, Summer Games Fest 2026 was watched live by millions across multiple streaming platforms. The Guild Wars 3 announcement trailer played halfway through the show.
After the trailer played, the camera turned to Colin Johanson, Head of ArenaNet Studio in center stage. "The time is right for the next evolution of the MMORPG, and that game is Guild Wars 3!"
Additionally, he told the audience that the game would be launching on PC and PS5, as well as to signup for the newsletter at guildwars3.com!
Guild Wars 3!
Over 1000 years before the events of the original Guild Wars, Guild Wars 3 lets you play as a member of the Vaelwardens, a guild sworn to protect the land and people of Orr. You'll glide, ride, leap, and wall-run to explore the magical frontiers of Orr.
Guild Wars 3 is an action-adventure MMORPG, a modern evolution of the genre that blends rich action-combat, character building, and skill collection. Play solo or form a band of adventurers, forging impactful and enduring bonds with fellow players, a formative cast of memorable NPCs, and the nature spirits that call Orr home.
