Guild Wars 2 devs show off Wintersday features
If you missed yesterday's Wintersday livestream, ArenaNet was kind enough to release the recorded video showing off some of the goodies we can expect in the Wintersday celebration for Guild Wars 2 that starts today. Devs Jake Miller and Matt Witter demonstrate the difficulty of the winter-themed jumping puzzles, the Guitar-Hero-esque Bell Choir, PvP snowball fights, and more. You can watch the full video after the cut and enjoy the new Wintersday content running from today through the next six weeks.
Wintersday livestream to offer sneak peek into Guild Wars 2's new content
Just as winter returned this year, so, too, will Guild Wars 2's Wintersday holiday! The six-week celebration, dubbed A Very Merry Wintersday, brings with it some seasonal content for players to enjoy. Kicking off on December 10th, the festival features plenty of events and activities, from Toymaker Tixx's workshop to Toypocalype to the Bell Choir. The whimsical Winter Wonderland jumping puzzle also returns. And as befitting any good winter holiday, players will be able to belt one another with snowballs! Besides all the holiday cheer, this Wintersday release also includes new healing skills (one for each profession) and Ascended armorcrafting (which allows those plying the armormaking trade to raise their skill to 500). Why wait until the 10th to get into the Wintersday spirit? Check out the Wintersday video and screenshots below, and tune in to the devs' livestream preview on Monday, December 9th at 3:00 p.m. EST.
