Guild Wars 2

A beta tester on reddit has leaked details of the mini-expansion due to be released in the second half of this year! Features include playable tengu, new polearm weapon, new zones and PvP maps!

What do people think? I, for one, am massively excited! Today is a very special day.

i’ll give this april’s fool joke a 6 out 10.

check the date ;P

The loadingscreen and character selection image is very nicely done. Almost looks legit. An okay april joke.

Such a cruel joke dude.
We all know we’ll never get expansions. So cruel.

The fact that the Mesmer’s 4th Polearm skill is a Facepalm speaks volumes about the validity of this as an expansion. Though, to be honest, I’d kill that have that icon for a spell or skill anyways. Much lolz.

Supersonic ring WANT DAT!
GOTTA GO FAST!

Playable Tengu and killing quaggans? Do want. If only it were real.

Can you find the Kirk-Facepalm Meme?
Very well made and thought through. The thing with the quaggans gave it away though.

I cried. I really wish I could believe that this wasn’t an April fools prank

Oh man, I want the skritt mercenary! Great stuff in there and well done for April Fools.

Obviously the “Tengu Expansion” is limited to certain parts of the Tengu…..

I’m afraid I was only able to find the Picard-facepalm meme.

I think he got it folks, lol.

I personally am relieved as deuce that this was a fake. There were quite a few semi-legitimate features in there that were absolutely infuriating to long-time players like myself. They really do know how to troll.

They got me for a while with those creation menu previews, very, very well done. And it fits.

However, three lines below I was laughing about Personal Story

Looked good, but the lack of ANet’s “blessing” on the screenshots and content is a dead giveaway.

Even though I knew it was fake when I read it… it still made me feel happy because I am that desperate for an expansion.

It was definitely a fun April Fools to read. Gave me a nice chuckle though I would love to see new areas and at least one new race to play in the future.

Its an april fools joke no doubt, however, the map looks legit, and I would not doubt it could very well have been data farmed. So while there is no expansion coming soon, that by no means invalidates this map, that will very likely come with the expansion… whenever we recieve it.
