Guild Wars 3 is ArenaNet's new MMORPG, announced in June 2026. It is set more than a thousand years before the original Guild Wars, on the wild frontier of Orr, where you join the Vaelwardens, a guild that protects settlers and nature spirits. It is the first in the series planned for PlayStation 5 too.
Combat is action-driven, built on positioning and movement, with the series' familiar build-making from collected skills. Traversal carries momentum between sprinting, wall-running, gliding and riding your Seeker, a spirit mount. Four species are planned at launch: humans, asura, the kodan as a playable species for the first time, and one still unrevealed.
It suits Guild Wars 2 fans and anyone who wants an MMO without a subscription: it is buy-to-play. For now it is only an announcement, with no date, and Russian is not listed.
