What is Guild Wars: Eye of the north?
Guild Wars: Eye of the north, also called GW:EN, is the first Guild Wars expansion. It follows the original Guild Wars campaign as well as the Guild WarsFactions and Guild WarsNightfall campaigns. GW:EN takes place in heretofore unexplored lands of Tyria, including the Far Shiverpeak Mountains, the Charr homelands, the shores of the Tarnished Coast, and even deep within dungeons that plumb the subterranean depths.

What is the release date of GW:EN?

Does GW:EN introduce any subscription or other fees?
No. In keeping with the spirit of previous Guild Wars Gold games, GW:EN does not require a monthly fee to play.

Will GW:EN have a simultaneous worldwide release?
Yes. There will be a simultaneous worldwide release for GW:EN.

Are there any demo versions of GW:EN available?
At the present time, a demo version of GW:EN is not planned.

Is there any sort of prerelease or pre-order package?
Yes, there will be a Prerelease Bonus Pack for GW:EN. The shelf date and contents of this product have not yet been revealed, but we’ll have more information about that package soon.

Do I need to own a copy of one of the previous Guild Wars Gold campaigns in order to play Guild Wars: Eye of the North?
Yes, because Eye of the north is an expansion rather than a new campaign—and because it is intended for your high-level characters—you need to own at least one of the Guild Wars campaigns—Guild Wars (the original campaign), Guild Wars Factions, or Guild Wars Nightfall—in order to play Guild Wars: Eye of the north. However, you do not need to complete any of the previous campaigns to play GW:EN.
