Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire is the second expansion pack for Guild Wars 2, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed and published by ArenaNet.[1] It was released on Microsoft Windows and macOS on September 22, 2017, and was made available for pre-purchase on August 1, 2017.[2]
The expansion introduces new features such as mounts, additional elite specializations for each profession, a bounty system for defeating certain enemies, and access to the areas of the Crystal Desert and Elona (first seen in the first game's Guild Wars Nightfall expansion).[3] It will also introduce new raids and season four of the living world storyline.
The setting for the expansion is a location known as the Crystal Desert, located in Elona, an area to the south-east of the base-game's playable area known as Tyria. Elona is an area which players have had access to before in the original Guild Wars, the precursor to Guild Wars 2. The expansion takes place ~250 years after the events of the original Guild Wars' story, and shortly after the events of Guild Wars 2's first expansion, Heart of Thorns, and the "Living World Season 3" content.
