The development team at ArenaNet is showing fans of the Guild Wars 2 MMO the new map that will be added to the game on February 26, called Spirit Watch.

The new game area will be offered for free and will see players battling in a new game mode that mixes capture the flag and conquest mechanics, with the ultimate prize being an Orb of Ascension.

The new map and event are part of the new living world concept for Guild Wars 2, which will see the MMO get access to new weekly content at a regular pace in order to keep the community involved as the team at ArenaNet continues to improve the game mechanics.

Developers have also mentioned a potential expansion for Guild Wars 2, which might be revealed later during 2013.
