It’s a Very Merry Wintersday in Guild Wars® 2

BRIGHTON, UK – Dec. 10, 2013: NCSOFT and ArenaNet, publisher and developer of the acclaimed Guild Wars franchise, today announces the latest Guild Wars 2 content update, A Very Merry Wintersday, which brings back the fan-favourite Wintersday holiday for six weeks beginning 10^th December, 2013.

It’s an MMO holiday tradition. As the nights grow long and colder in the Living World of Tyria, Toymaker Tixx returns in his massive floating workshop to spread holiday cheer with high-tech toys and festive games. This year the asuran inventor Tixx and his frequently faulty golem assistant Toxx have a bag full of mirth for players of every persuasion.

Wintersday Events and Activities
·         The Wondrous Workshop – R ound up mischievous toys running wild inside Toymaker Tixx’s holiday workshop!

·         Winter Wonderland Jumping Puzzle – Test your skills in a lethal platform puzzle loaded with holiday obstacles and really long drops!

·         Bell Choir Musical Activity – Join other players to ring in the season and make sweet, sweet music together!

·         Toypocalypse – Enter the Toypocalypse challenge and help save Wintersday from haywire toys run amok!

·         Snowball Mayhem – It wouldn’t be Wintersday without a chance to pelt your fellow players in the face with snowballs in this fun team activity!

However, not everything is candy canes and snowflakes in Guild Wars 2 this December. The nightmare still continues in the Kessex Hills and surrounding countryside, as players battle inside the Tower of Nightmares introduced in the 29^th October release.
