The teams at ArenaNet and NCsoft announce that they are launching the new storyline for Guild Wars 2, called Escape from Lion’s Arch, which is designed to offer the penultimate chapter in the saga linked to Scarlet Briar and will introduce a huge change to the game world.

Gamers will be able to take part in the defense of the city of Lion’s Arch, one of the most recognizable landmarks of the MMO's universe, and witness how the impressive architecture crumbles around them as they battle a variety of enemies.

ArenaNet explains that, “To protect the innocent, players will have to battle everything from the brutal charr of the Flame Legion and the towering clockwork watchknights to vicious creatures such as the krait and the feared Aetherblade sky pirates.”

Vigil Keep in the Gendarran Fields is the base for players who are fighting to save Lion’s Arch and take out Scarlet Briar.
