ArenaNet has unveiled a new trailer for Guild Wars 2 at this year's GamesCom in Cologne, Germany.

The five minute trailer gives us a closer look at some of the game's more PvE oriented content.

Also, for you PvP folks, be sure to check out Jonathan Sharp's blog on Guild Wars 2 PvP.

Oh wow, I was completely thrown off the very first second of the trailer.

Great trailer!

Nice marketing, but how about some real pvp gameplay footage.

@Arquiteto:

You have to wait till tomorrow for that. Till then, enjoy the trailer in all its glory. XD

Ummmm. Looks to be all CGI - movie quality stuff. But what about in game looks - how close to the CGI is the actual in game play? What I have seen of the demo's so far are pretty much a standard visual like other MMOs. Anyway I certainly enjoyed this trailer, nice job.

Apart from the obvious artwork at the beginning that video is all gameplay :)

Except for the intro concept art, it's all in game footage, garry.

Looks great! Now... for that release date

He's probably confused because of a few differences from the game footage you see in the videos...

1.  it's in HD.

2.  The sound isn't noisy gamefloor noise.

3.  It's zoomed in so you can see details better.

4.  There's no UI.

... but yeah, those are all the exact same graphics you'll be seeing in the real game (Assuming your computer is halfway decent)

Is dat sum Sorrow's Furnace?

This wait is too long!

I feel like nerd raging now due to the fact that gw2 is not out yet.

I thought their manifesto was good in showing off gw2 but this set a new bar

That was truly epicly awesome!

GW2, TERA, Secret World.. 2012 is going to be MMO EPIC

...Eh lol it was cool but we just saw a bunch of slow-motion animations and combat...I wanna see what the game is *really* like when playing through quests, with the UI and all of that lovely stuff. You know, what we'll *really* be looking at happening on the screen.

There is literally hundreds of hours on youtube of REAL gameplay. Just about all of them are hand-recorded though. :(

The only gameplay we have seen were demos at conventions with a 40 minute timer.

Also, there is no quest. :p

No its really not. Its rendered using the ingame engine but it is not real gameplay footage. I want shots from the player perspective. Though that could ruin the artistic cutscene feel of all there trailers. Either way I am buying it. Who am I kidding.

 Trailer was ruined because my dog kept whimpering. Then I realized the dog was outside and I was alone in the room........ yeah.  Great video.

Man thats some epic pve.

And the best part? Everyone will get to experience it!!!

This wont be like RIFT where you see am awesome video of hammerknell and know in the back of your head you will never see it.

A-net is creating awesome content that isnt exclusive to the people that play all day everyday.

First solo/duo instance in Rift in like 3 weeks is set inside Hammerknell. Flaw in your logic and it is not Vapoware. it is a good trailor, but it means nothing to me until I see how ti preforms live.

If they impress me live I will become a foaming at the mouth GW2 fanboi like you can not believe, but it has to atleast do a Beta or something.
