Guild Wars 2 introduces the Spirit Watch PVP map
ArenaNet has a new video out showcasing their new Norn-themed PVP map for Guild Wars 2, Spirit Watch. It promises huge idyllic vistas, crystal clear waters, and of course, deadly combat. The map will combine conquest gameplay with a capture-the-flag style, forcing players to battle over the Orb of Ascension. It'll roll out on February 26th as a free update to the subscription-less MMO. One of the reasons I love this model is because of updates like this -- I can jump back in guilt free, without having to re-sub. Did you know?
