Guild Wars Smashes Five Million!

The Guild Wars® franchise has sold over five million copies worldwide! This landmark comes at an exciting time. ArenaNet is building an even more expansive and immersive experience in Guild Wars 2, which is sure to appeal to loyal players and newcomers alike. NCsoft and ArenaNet have issued a full press release with details. Also, this just in: our fans rock!
