Relations

OrrGuild Wars 3 begins in Orr while the kingdom still stands. This period is more than a thousand years before Guild Wars Reforged, long before the formerly sunken ruins raised by Zhaitan in Guild Wars 2.Orr
Guild Wars 3's setting: the human kingdom of Orr, standing more than a thousand years before the original game.
The Six GodsThe six gods brought humans to Tyria, and Guild Wars 3's humans spotlight places that arrival roughly seven hundred years before the game's present. That timing is the setting's central promise: this is the era when the gods walk, told from inside it rather than in retrospect. In the later games the gods are history and absence. Here they are current events.The Six Gods
