Description:

Both Guild Wars and Guild Wars Factions are global online RPGs for the PC that sold extremely well on release on both sides of the Atlantic. Therefore, it should come as no surprise that NCsoft Europe is releasing a third instalment in the series, entitled Guild Wars Nightfall.

In Nightfall, gamers must fight to hold back the night, as a crazed ruler attempts to free her captured god and bring total darkness to the land of Elona. Fans of the series will be pleased to know that there are two new professions being introduced in the game; the Dervish, a holy warrior, and the Paragon, who is the guardian angel of the Elonian people. With 20 missions and hundreds of quests, there should be enough to keep even the most hardened of Guild Warriors interested. Players will be helped by customisable Heroes, who follow instructions in combat, using skills and equipment of the player's choice. Heroes are very brave, following the player through poisonous deserts, ancient mountains and savage coasts.

For the competitive gamers out there, you can choose to play the all-new Hero vs. Hero Battles, where you must pit your customised team of Heroes against those of other players from around the globe.

Guild Wars Nightfall for the PC will be available in both Standard and Collector's Edition. The Collector's Edition will include the game, the making of Guild Wars Nightfall DVD, collector's art book, collectible skills pins, a character mini-standee, the Guild Wars Nightfall soundtrack CD and a map of Elona.
