Guild Wars is a free MMORPG developed by ArenaNet and published by NCSoft. It was released on April 26, 2005 and since then has sold millions of copies. Three add-ons have been released for Guild Wars: Factions, Nightfall, and Eye of the North. There is no monthly fee to play Guild Wars, and no in-game cash shop. The business model relies entirely on the sale of add-ons and expansion packs.
Aside from the major town hubs, the entirety of the Guild Wars world is instanced to an individual or party. The game has a heavy Player vs. Player following which has kept the community quite lively over the years.
There is no official release date yet for Guild Wars 2, but current estimates are some time in 2010.
