Guild Wars 2 is set to expand the gaming world of Guild Wars with new features

Guild Wars came out several years ago and quite literally shocked the MMO world with its fast paced gameplay, innovative grind-less philosophy, and best of all: a lack of a monthly subscription fee. There were lots of different skills, a PVP system that was fun and balanced and constant expansions coming out bringing new content.

For several years now ArenaNet has been hard at work developing their brand new MMO world with new professions, new races, new gameplay modes, and brand new engine and story. After having looked at all the new features of Guild Wars 2, it's safe to say that this game is a lock to be a great game, and definitely better than the original.

We must first start with the 5 new races that are available for play in Guild Wars 2. These new races aren't simply visual candy used to separate the thousands of players playing at the same time as each other. In fact these new races will have their own starting areas for quests, they will have their own racial traits, and also they will possess unique racial abilities that will each give a specific kind of edge in actual combat.

Guild Wars 2 is set to expand the gaming world of Guild Wars with new features that will make it among the most revolutionary games online. This Guild Wars 2 guide will take you through some of those features. It is important to remember that these features are in the development stage still and can change at any time.

One of the most exciting features will be the true to life 3D environments. With this feature, a player will experience enhanced game play over the previous Guild Wars and it will enhance the way the new story is being told to the player.

As a new feature, players can now determine the class and race of their characters. For races, players can choose from Sylvari, Norn, Charr, Asura and the Humans. As for classes, to date only the only the Warrior and Elementalist have been announced. As more classes are revealed, the game's main site will be updated with these exciting new professions.

Character levels have been increased for the characters as well. As an exciting and revolutionary new feature to this concept, higher level players can transfer some of their available powers to lower level 'sidekick' characters, helping to make the game play more exciting. In addition players may enter a PVE environment having everyone against everything - called PvPvE - Player versus Player versus Environment. This is a concept that first appeared in NCSoft's Aion, and has proved to be a great success. Of course, the regular PVP feature will remain as well if the other is too much for one to handle. Another existing game feature, Guild vs. Guild battles, will remain in Guild Wars 2 as well.
