'Guild Wars 3' Confirmed by Accidental Leak? ArenaNet's Unreal Engine 5 Gaming Mockup Goes Viral Amid Denials
A supposed internal marketing document from NCSoft has gone viral on social media, claiming that 'Guild Wars 3' is in active development using Unreal Engine 5. The leak, shared by a gaming insider, shows a stylized cinematic mockup of a new playable race—the Tengu—in a high-definition version of the Maguuma Jungle. However, ArenaNet has officially denied the claims on X, stating, "That teaser is from an internal prototype for a concept that will never release." Despite this, fans remain split, with many arguing that the visual fidelity and trademark filings suggest the MMO is indeed real. The official stance remains that no project has been greenlit, but the internet can't stop discussing the potential for a 'Guild Wars 3' reveal at the next Gamescom.
