NCSoft and ArenaNet will be attending Paris Games Week from October 21st to the 25th.

Do note that the demo will be the same one that was displayed at Gamescom, PAX Prime, and Eurogamer. So don't expect any major new news about game mechanics.

Does anyone know if GW2 will be at Gamex in Sweden?

Does anyone know if GW2 will be at Gamex in Sweden?

They make no mention of Gamex on their trade show page (Here) so I'm going to assume that they are not attending. Don't think they have ever attended Gamex.

[Blufossa]

Hope we get to see some new stuff! If not, I'm still excited for new videos.

[Rakeer]

I see a developer's name appear more then once on that list. May mean he has something important to say like beta, predicited release, or final class.

Update: Added interview with Eric Flannum about lore and game mechanics.

[Muzjhath]

With all the Q&A sessions we'll hopefully get some good answears that will make us drool a bit more.

[Arkenaw]

I hope they reveal the last profession. Isn't this the last con they are visiting for the year?

I believe so.

Hopefully there are no dates after October on the page because the game will be out before the next set of game expos!

[Salech]

I hope they make some nice reveals *hint hint*
