Inside the 'Guild Wars 3' Fever Dream: How a 20-Year-Old MMO Is Now Trending Because of a Meme About a Cat Playing an Underwater Harp
In a stunning twist that only the internet could orchestrate, `Guild Wars 3` is trending for the first time in almost a decade—not because of a surprise sequel announcement, but because a grainy clip of a tabby cat named Lord Fuzzlesworth repeatedly slapping a harp in a lava-jumping puzzle went viral with the caption "NCSoft's development roadmap." The irony? The meme is rooted in the community's long-running joke that the third installment will never arrive. The funny side? The cat has better rhythm than most end-game raid teams, and the official Guild Wars 2 Twitter account just replied with a single emoji: 🐱🎶. As thousands of nostalgic fans dig out their gear, the era of "Cat Wars 3" has officially begun.
