Is it authentic?

Yes. It is on their official youtube channel.How can they release something everyone wants so badly in such anticlimactic way is beyond me. But I am so happy that something is happening finally.

Branded Awakened look scary as hell

Of course it is authentic, it is hosted at the ArenaNetOfficial channel.

That's surprising, there's nothing on the main GW2 site and I would have thought that would be the first one to update. (Unless they're having as much trouble as I am with my company's kitten website today! Not that I'm escaping to the forum to avoid throwing the computer out the window or anything...)

I can't watch the trailer yet but it sounds like there's a lot in this episode - new story & map, new raid, new legendary, Suns Refuge, and the rumoured upgradable armour. Have to admit it's the first one and the last one I'm most excited about. I'm curious about how this upgradable armour will work especially.

Their own page isn't even up yet, which is why the video is still unlisted.

It's early for them.

Okay thanks for the answers ;)

Wow. You weren't kidding when you called it anticlimactic.

looks like either anet delayed it and didn't contact massivelyop in time or massivelyop released it prematurely. given that the video is unlisted on YT and the link in the description doesn't work atm

but it is autentic

will be released next week so today is the right day to release the trailer

Wasn't a great trailer and the emphasis on Aurene doesn't give me any sense of anticipation or hype.

Hope to be proved wrong and it turns out to be something special

Probably not released to the public as there are bugs and the date has been put back.

I really hope that the new map does not contain too much of a lightning strike zone like in domain of Vabbi. I already hate Vabbi because of it, at the end of the trailer it looks very much the same.

On the Brightside, maybe we get Aurene as a mount skin finally.

From the trailer we don't even know which type of Legendary Weapon Xiuquatl is (the article says Scepter, but the trailer only "Legendary") and not even one picture of it. Really sad but I hope we get more information when the trailer is officially revealed.

Probably gonna be a snake scepter https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiuhcoatl

Hopefully we can play it like a flute too.

I see nothing wrong with a trailer that doesn’t give away spoilers.

My thoughts exactly.

But..but..but..we need to know everything!!!

The trailer was alright, but to me at least it failed to really get me interested in what the story chapter is going to be.

it seems the scepter summons a familiar to help the player in combat lol.

Scepter that throws snakes? meh lol

It was certainly a small step back in terms of showing off whats to come. We saw some of Sun's Refuge, Branded Awakened looking menacingly in our direction but nothing of the armor set, legendary or raid. Small look into the map at the last 10 seconds. The first trailer this season was awful and showed nothing, second one was amazing and showed everything, third one showed the cool things and this one went back to not showing anything, but on the quality level of the previous two.

I hope this actually releases on the 18th and hasn't been pushed back.

What if it's unfinished but is going to be released anyway. Like Kourna?
