Guild Wars 2 is an MMORPG under development by the Bellevue, Washington-based ArenaNet studio, a subsidiary of NCSoft corporation. Announced in late March 2007, it is the sequel to the original Guild Wars series and will continue the original Guild Wars tradition of no subscription fees. No release dates have been announced, and there will be no public beta-testing period in 2008.

Players of the current Guild Wars campaigns and the expansion will be allowed to "port" achievements obtained in the original series into Guild Wars 2 via the Hall of Monuments location in the Eye of the North expansion which will also be present in Guild Wars 2. Player character names will be reserved from the original series for their owners’ use in Guild Wars 2; however, the characters themselves will not be transferable from the original series.
