Guild Wars: Eye of the North pre-release info and screenshots
NCsoft‘s Eye of the North has been billed as the first true expansion for the Guild Wars series. If you can’t wait for its release, you might be interested in knowing that a pre-release bonus pack is going to be released on July 20.
This is pretty big news considering that the official release of this game is on August 31. Players who pick this up will be ahead by around a month or so, giving them a significant advantage in the ever competitive PvP ladder. The bonus pack will be available through retailers in North America and Europe. In addition to this, it will also be sold at the NCsoft store at PlayNC.com and through the official Guild Wars online store.
It wouldn’t be a bonus pack if you didn’t get some pretty cool stuff with it. The bonus pack includes some exclusive weapons such as the Glacial Blade, Hourglass Staff, and the Darksteel Longbow – all of which are based on the winning designs from the Guild Wars Design-a-Weapon Contest held earlier this year.
Players who don’t decide to bite the bullet and just pre-order the regular version will be getting a little bonus as well. These gamers will be getting access to the new content from August 24 to 26 in an event aptly named Sneak Peek Weekend. Everything players obtain – items, XP, Heroes, and loot – will be permanent and available when the expansion goes live.
