Guild Wars 2 Godspawn is the first update to the Janthir Wilds expansion and it arrives on 18 November 2024.
ArenaNet’s wildly successful MMORPG is out to take down another Titan with the news of Guild Wars 2 Godspawn. The first free update following Janthir Wilds will land in just under a week and face off against gigantic forces of nature known as Titans. Joining forces with the Kodan, Pathfinders and their allies will attempt to halt the chaos before it ravages Janthir.
Developer ArenaNet announced the news of this incoming update last night with a blog post and a teaser trailer. The detail out of Bellevue confirmed that, alongside a huge challenge, the update will include a new legendary weapon, a new Convergence encounter, raids, and more. The Klobjarne spear is the latest legendary to unlock for Commanders, providing six different possible looks for the blade as combat kicks off. We haven’t been given much more detail on how this will unlock or be built, but it looks stunning.
For the first time in five years, players will also find a new raid in Tyria. The Intrepid groups of up to 10 players will climb Mount Balrior to face off against the titans of Janthir in a challenging gauntlet of encounters that will reward them with some of the content’s marquee items and cosmetics. Whether it means we can expect a resurgence, we will have to wait and see. PvE players can also look forward to a new Convergence encounter out in the Wilds. Originally introduced during the Secrets of the Obsucre, the Janthir Wilds Godspawn Convergence allows up to 50 players to encounter a reinterpretation of the titan Decima. This open-world PvE encounter will likely be more large-scale, multi objective open world boss battling that we’ve come to expect from Guild Wars 2.
The update also gets a bunch of other loot for your effort, including new Sea Wave Glass weapon, a suite of new relics, new homestead crafting and decoration recipes, and a refreshed Wizard’s Vault loot list. If you’re looking to slip on the Rot Stalker skin or battle a Titan then the Godspawn update will unlock as a free update for Jantihr Wilds next week. Check out the official blog post for more.
