Guild Wars 2 is the anticipated sequel to the Guild Wars series. What is currently known is that it will be an improvement on many facets of gameplay. Guild Wars 2 takes the player 250 years further in time. Meanwhile, the human race has declined, other races (Sylvari, Asura, Charr and Norn) have taken over large areas of the continent once known as Tyria to man. One of the improvements over the vanilla Guild Wars series is that those new races are actually playable, so Guild Wars players do not have to be human de facto. As with the current Guild Wars formula, the game will be free of monthly charges.

Beta testing and scams
At the time of this writing, speculation states that the actual beta testing of Guild Wars 2 is to take place somewhere in the first half of 2009. The initial announcement was that beta testing was to take place end of 2008, but as the product was far from ready it has been delayed. The official Guild Wars website has issued a warning that there are currently bogus websites around claiming to have access keys to a Guild Wars 2 beta. As Legio Romana cares for the community, we repeat the core of the message here: there are NO beta keys unless announced on the official Guild Wars website!
