If you haven’t visited Tyria for a while, welcome back! It can be overwhelming to start catching up, or to know what you’ve missed—so to help you get up to speed on Living World Season 4, we’ll have livestreams, guides, and free or discounted items in the Gem Store, focusing on one episode per week. And we’re starting today!

If you’re having trouble remembering your Guild Wars 2 password, our Customer Support Team can help. Go to our Support page and click “Trouble logging in?” for assistance.

Free Episode Unlock: “Daybreak”

If you missed picking up the first episode of Living World Season 4 while it was live, visit the Gem Store in game to unlock “Daybreak” for free! All players can also grab a free Tradesman’s Package this week in the Gem Store (limit one per account). These items will be available from March 26 until April 1.

You’ll need to own Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire™ to play Living World Season 4. If you haven’t upgraded your account yet, use the coupon code GW2WELCOMEBACK to take 50% off* when you purchase the expansion through our official site.
