E3 for Everyone
From Guild Wars Wiki
[edit] Description
Hosted on the 10th of May 2004 during the E3 show, this was the first public "beta" for Guild Wars Prophecies and lasted 5 days. This beta offered players the first glimpse of Guild Wars through the ruined kingdom of Ascalon along with five cooperative missions:
- The Perilous North (Now The Great Northern Wall)
- The Wall of Ascalon (Now Fort Ranik)
- Prisoners of War (Now Ruins of Surmia)
- Stormcaller (Now Nolani Academy)
- Leaving the Wastes (Now Borlis Pass)
In addition, the preview included a sixth mission involving the Stone Summit as well as a preview of the Maguuma Jungle region. Additionally, there were the following PvP outposts:
- The Arena (Now Random Arena)
- The Tombs of Drascir (Now Heroes' Ascent)
- The Siege of Fort Koga (Was not included in retail, but a similar scenario is used for Fort Aspenwood)
