9 itemsAbout the Game
Experience the game that started a 20-year legacy! Guild Wars Reforged invites both returning heroes and brand-new adventurers to step into Tyriaʼs storied past—where every outpost leads to adventure, every mission tells a tale, and every sidekick has a name.
Welcome to Tyria
Stand with mighty heroes as you face Charr warbands sweeping across Ascalon, battle rival gangs in the streets of Kaineng City, and cross the sulfurous wastelands of the Desolation astride a Junundu wurm. Set events in motion that will shape the centuries to come.
Relive the groundbreaking magic of this legendary, narrative-driven fantasy adventure, or delve into its world for the very first time. From your first skill capture to your final piece of elite armor, every step of Guild Wars Reforged is an unforgettable journey.
