Guild Wars Factions (Platinum Edition)

Guild Wars is a a massively multi-player online role-playing game (MMORPG) with an emphasis on tactical combat. In single player, multiplayer and guild-based missions, players will explore a fantasy world while pursuing professions and gaining skills that help them develop and advance their unique character. The game offers cooperative group combat, single player missions, and large head-to-head guild battles. While each combat experience is different, achievements will be permanent so that the character grows and progresses over time.

Guild Wars Factions takes place on the continent of Cantha, where new and existing Guild Wars players join an epic quest to defeat an ancient evil and save a war-torn empire. New scored challenge missions and strategic competitive missions allow players to test their roleplaying prowess and earn the right for their alliance to take control of cities, towns and outposts. Large-scale alliance battles pit teams from opposing factions against each other in a struggle to conquer new territory and redraw the battle lines across the continent of Cantha.
