Lion's Arch is in ashes after the events of Guild Wars 2's last update, but the center of trade in Tyria still represents the heart of the continent. And that's why races will unite in an effort to reclaim it in the upcoming 'Battle for Lion's Arch' update, which will end the 'Living World' story arc on March 4.

The new update will see players venture back into Lion's Arch for one final clash with villainess Scarlet Briar, who will finally reveal the endgame of her sinister machinations. Players will be able to catch up with the 'Living World' storyline to this point through a new Living World Atlas storyline, which recaps the story and also offers hidden secrets, hints, videos, and artwork from across the land of Tyria.

Prepare for the final battle with the trailer below.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
