About this game

Free to play since August 2015 and never subscription based, this online role playing game sends a returning band of heroes against the Elder Dragons that have taken over the fantasy world of Tyria. Public events anyone nearby can join replace traditional questing, and combat rewards teaming up between professions and using the environment as a weapon. It drops the usual holy trinity of roles and gives players reasons to cooperate rather than compete over quest resources and loot. Eight professions and five races allow plenty of builds. The cooperative design and the free access make it an easy MMO to try today.
