Paying for game again?
Hello! I just bought GW2 not too long ago, and I was wondering how I can get the expansion without buying the original game again. Otherwise, it wouldn’t make any sense, and I should have just waited a bit and bought the expansion and the game combined. How do I pre order JUST HoT?
you cant
If you’re saying you bought the game very recently you can message support and they’ll refund your recent purchase of GW2 when you prepurchase HoT.
If you’re confused about the price of HoT and think you’re buying two games you’re not, HoT itself is $50 and they throw in the base game to newcomers as an incentive.
If you bought the game from buy.guildwars2.com between Jan 23rd and June 16th, you’ll get it refunded if you purchase HoT through buy.guildwars2.com. The refund is automatic and will be processed once a week.
The core game + heroic edition was being sold for only $10 just a few months ago and the bonuses of the heroic edition alone were a $20 value. The core game has no value, so they simply “included” it, as in a HoT serial key grants full access to a GW2 account.
