The Third Episode of Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns is Live Now

It was announced by NCSOFT, that the third episode of Living World Season 3, “A Crack in the Ice,” is now available. Players can log in today to continue the story of what’s happening in Tyria since the death of Mordremoth in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns – a flood of unbound magic, the rise of two Elder Dragons to threaten the land, and the birth of the new dragon scion, Aurene.

Check out the A Crack in the Ice trailer of Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns, featuring some gameplay footage:

“In “A Crack in the Ice,” players will explore Bitterfrost Frontier, a new map in the Northern Shiverpeaks which is home to some of the Elder Dragon Jormag’s most powerful minions. Over the course of Season 3, players have been unlocking new ways to move through the new maps and counter enemy attacks with the Ancient Magicks mastery; Episode 3 introduces a new mastery tier that will aid them as they venture into the bitter cold.

Along with “A Crack in the Ice” comes the brand-new Nightmare Fractal, in which players will venture into the Mists to face a challenging echo of the toxic Tower of Nightmares. In this five-player instanced dungeon, players will fight through all-new bosses and encounters, including dizzying new mechanics inspired by the “bullet hell” genre of shooting games to keep even the most experienced adventurers on their toes.

ArenaNet is currently holding a 50% off sale for the Heart of Thorns expansion through tomorrow, November 22. The base game is free of charge, and a stream of new content is frequently added via the Living World seasons, so there’s never been a better time to jump in and enjoy hundreds of hours of award-winning gaming.

To access new Living World episodes players must own Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns; by simply logging in they can unlock episodes for free to play later. They don’t need to have completed the main Heart of Thorns storyline in the expansion to enjoy Season 3.

Season 3 content is intended for level-80 characters. Every purchase of Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thornscomes with a Level-80 Boost, which will boost one character to max level and get them equipped to enjoy all the content available in Guild Wars 2, including Season 3.”
