Guild Wars 2 has a bunch of sweet anniversary gifts in store for MMO players next week

It’s hard to believe Guild Wars 2 is going on eight years old, but we’ll roll with it if it means a pile of anniversary and birthday presents for super old toons, and it most certainly does! ArenaNet posted a full list of the gifts we can expect this year; for accounts, we’re looking at…

• Celebratory Birthday Enrichment: Apply this enrichment infusion to any ascended amulet for a 15% boost to karma gain and a dazzling celebratory aura.
• Amulet of Celebration: An ascended amulet with selectable attributes to commemorate your deeds.
• Title: Dedicated
•Anniversary Armor Pack: Choose a set of exclusive armor skins.
Two Anniversary Weapon Packs: Choose exclusive weapon skins.
• Anniversary Backpack Pack: Choose an exclusive backpack skin.
• Guaranteed Wardrobe Unlock: Unlocks a random wardrobe option.

And as for characters turning eight next week on the 25th?

• Birthday Card: Awards 5,000 karma when consumed.
• Dedicated Dye Kit: Choose an account-bound exclusive dye.
• Two Black Lion Statuettes: Redeemable for a variety of Gem Store items.
• Two Birthday Boosters: Grants the Celebration Bonus effect for one day.
• Five Teleport to Friend Tokens: Use to teleport to a party member’s location.

The studio is planning an anniversary livestream at noon EDT on the 25th – not coincidentally when the underwater mount patch rolls out. Make sure you’re popping into the game to check up on the daily sales, too!
