Guild Wars 2’s storyline will continue on July 1, when the next season of Living World (the game’s term for regular content updates that tell an ongoing story) begins.
Players of ArenaNet’s fantasy MMO are currently enjoying a bit of a break after the finale of last season back in March, where arch-villain Scarlet Briar rather inconsiderately woke a deadly elder dragon. The current Festival of the Four Winds celebrations will continue until the new season launches.
ArenaNet posted the image above on the official Guild Wars website, which has already kicked off some speculation about where the story is heading.
That portal in the background? Fans are currently theorizing that it leads to the jungles of Maguuma, where Mordremoth, the elder dragon mentioned above, is currently rampaging about. We’ll see if that theory hold up when July 1 rolls around.
