If you love testing your mettle against your fellow players, June is your month to shine! In the coming weeks, we’ll be releasing updates to structured Player vs. Player and World vs. World, along with the start of PvP League Season 7.

World vs. World—June 6

Updates to World vs. World will include improved LFG, new rewards, and skirmishing updates! We’re making sure skirmishing in WvW is fun and rewarding with an updated UI and new rewards. Keep an eye on the blog and release highlights in the next few days for more information.

PvP League Season 7—June 13
PvP League returns on June 13. Sharpen your blades, and get ready to rock!

PvP—June 20
Automated tournaments are the future of competitive PvP in Guild Wars 2, and will let you compete in three daily tournaments for a chance to qualify for a monthly tournament and earn prestigious rewards! Structured PvP will also be updated with a custom arena map for 2v2 battles and a new and improved PvP lobby to hang out in

PvP is one of the best things that GW2 has to offer. Unranked is pretty fun if you're not competitive (which I'm not), so I always have a blast.

I'm tentatively excited, but only because there's not too much to go on with the blogpost. I can't say I miss the massive info-dump that we would get when Colin was the game director, but I would appreciate if MO would give us a little bit more info before release.

It's great to see WvW get some kind of love that's a little more tangible to players than systems updates. I'm hoping the 'rewards' part of that statement is more than just a "Here's an ascended vendor!" ...and as I type this, I find this information. So awesome, a whole bunch of new armor skins and a legendary backpiece for WvW!




I'm really hoping we see another minor balance patch before the next PvP ranked season. Some of the recent changes were a little... too effective.

I'm very, very hyped. Prestige armor and a unique backpiece? This'll pump a lot of blood into the mode.

Also,

The new system also gives a significant bonus to players when fighting outnumbered. This provides servers, with lower populations than their opponents, an opportunity to stay on par or, in some cases, even get ahead of their opponents with respect to their skirmish reward progress.

Very, very good idea. Players need a good incentive to destack. If you genuinely can progress a lot faster while playing on Outmanned, this should help a lot.
