Leaked ArenaNet memo confirms Guild Wars 3 is real, and it’s scrapping everything you loved.
Deep within the encrypted chatter of a former ArenaNet developer, a single, chilling document surfaced: a project roadmap code-named "Project Phoenix." Sources say the next installment isn't just a sequel—it's a complete corporate zero-sum. The memo allegedly orders the erasure of the original Guild Wars 2 lore and all player progress. The rumored "Guild Wars 3" won't be a fantasy MMO, but a complete genre pivot to a live-service battle royale set in a dystopian version of Tyria. They’re wiping the slate clean, offering only a single emblem as a "legacy reward," and banning any mention of the old game's community. The suits are betting on a new generation who never knew the glory of the original. This stays off the record. You didn't see this.
