Sorry to necro this thread, but I came to the forums specifically to see if there was a planned PS4 port and found this thread via the search function.

I saw a free trial offer was just recently announced and honestly haven’t played the game in quite some time.

I did enjoy what I saw of Guild Wars 2 when it was launched but was burnt out on MMO’s at the time. While I still don’t have a ton of time for gaming these days I believe GW2 would fit perfectly on consoles. The smaller skill set that switches depending on what weapon you have equipped allows for easy button mapping on a game controller.

We’ve seen success with Final Fantasy XIV and what I believe to be the definitive version of Diablo 3. I would love to see Guild Wars 2 make a console-friendly port. If done correctly, I think it could be a huge success for ArenaNet.

I’m curious what technical limitations does the community see as potential issues for a console version? Targeting? Coordination?
