The tracker anticipated 7.5 to be released on May 9th (6 days ago). Given what we gleaned from Kafka’s secret newspaper (above), I’m thinking the update may drop in the next 2 weeks or so 😄

Based on some updates in Steam DB was hoping to drop it this week. Seems they are still doing tests:

I think campaign will end before update.  
As we all know, updates cause problems.  
So 3 weeks.

If you said that everyone would get free ice cream tomorrow, I would believe you.🍨

The devs mentioned that they would focus on guild wars after pvp, but they will probably have to clean up some bugs when we all wake up next Monday.

The next update’s expected release date is between November 1-9!

I, and many others here on the forums were hoping for some guild war news, and it is getting harder and harder for me to wait. I know that the devs have been sick, but even just a “We are currently working on guild wars for a future update” would be nice.

@NerdieBirdie Since the update dropped 15 days earlier than usual, does everyone get free ice cream now?🤣

I tried sending some to your in-game mailbox, but it melted on the way… 🍦

Just in case youd missed it.

Actually, the article says they are still in the early design phase, looking for player feedback. I’d imagine that first “further update” is going to happen when they start to implement something, at which point we are at least two regular patches away from getting GW back.

It’s at the bottom of every months calendar - I make those blogs - once we have anything to share, we will update that help centre article first

8.2’s beta has just been announced, meaning the update may drop slightly earlier than predicted.

I just hope the next update brings back guild wars. Not having competition against the best players in the game has made it difficult for me to keep playing. For me, building up kingdom stats, developing new strategies and team building helped me gain more knowledge and experience.

It’s been too much of this pvp nonsense where we just spam Stellarix and wand of stars all day, all the time. (There are some restrictions that you can get away with, but nothing compares to VP per hour with the before mentioned set-up).

We need a change–desperately. I know that the 10 year anniversary is around the corner, but I’m not sure what to expect.

A Guild Wars Headstart Offer.  
A Guild Wars Season Pass.  
A Guild Wars Premium Pass.  
A Guild Wars Retry Token Bundle.  
Several Guild Wars Troop Booster Trinkets.

Sarcasm aside, the silence about the supposed rework feels pretty worrying. That usually only happens whenever it’s already clear that any details won’t be received well by the community. I wouldn’t be surprised if the new Guild Wars will split guilds into two parts, the fish in the barrel and those who buy the season shotgun to have a blast.

You forgot Guild Wars Sigils pack just for $2 to earn more points! But limited with 10/day so noone is hurt.

Given the way everything introduced is now just a new cash grab with more bugs it’s hard to forsee GW coming back without a cash grab element! Even if that goes completely against what it was.
