The days are ticking down to the release of Guild Wars: Factions, and there are plenty of questions and rumors flying around the net. To try to keep everyone informed on the status and basics of what is going on and what to expect, ArenaNet has updated their official GWF FAQ. So if you have some basic questions about the game, when it is supposed to launch, pricing, storyline etc, check out their nice compilation of info at the link below.

Will Guild Wars expand to other areas of the world?

•     We are actively looking at expanding Guild Wars to other regions and countries. Guild Wars launched in Japan on January 27, 2006, and will launch in Taiwan, Macau, and Hong Kong on February 7, 2006. We anticipate the addition of even more regions or countries during 2006.

 

Is Guild Wars Factions an expansion pack or a stand-alone game?

•     Guild Wars Factions is a stand-alone product. Those who own Guild Wars are not required to purchase Guild Wars Factions in order to continue playing on their game account, and those who purchase Guild Wars Factions may play without purchasing Guild Wars. However, there is a strong level of interconnection between the two games that makes having them both an exceptional experience.
