Guild Wars 2

I just wanted to see if there were any updates for the game to be on consoles.
Even though the timing would be different to push out updates based on the various tests and validations that are required, it would still be a good avenue to get more players. I have seen controller videos being utilized already on PC, so I just wanted to see and hear your thoughts on the approach.

Mike Zadorojny even had answered it briefly during GW2 one year anniversary about keeping all options opened in an interview he had at ‘Up at Noon’ on IGN, so I am just following up. Interview link below (actual interview starts at 6:30):

Thanks

It will never happen. Except for the fact that Arena net do not have the resources to handle 4 versions of the game. Combined with the fact that each patch cost a lot of money about 50k. Then the fact that the market for a four year old game isn’t huge, you can see why you should give up on that dream.

Btw keeping all options is simply marketing speak for it could happen, just like it could happen that I get a billion dollars from Bill Gates.

PC + TV + Controller + Xpadder + GW2 = Console experience with superior graphics and resolution.

No need for a console version… xD

Here is a video of me playing all 9 classes in GW2 on my controller + TV:

As you can see, it’s totally playable and everyone already has a PC anyways. Consoles are just luxary devices with kitten hardware. xD

There are no plans for it as far as we know.

On the technical side of things, the PS4/XB1 aren’t capable of running the game at an acceptable level in many scenarios, such as when there are a lot of people around
