Guild Wars: Factions, released in April 2006, takes players to Cantha — a continent inspired by East Asian aesthetics, and two warring factions, the Luxons and Kurzicks.

The campaign follows a plague threatening Cantha and a civil war between its great houses. PvP was expanded significantly, and characters can travel between Cantha and the other Guild Wars continents on the same account.

Two new professions were added: the Assassin, a fast melee class built around combo chains, and the Ritualist, who summons spirit allies and channels the power of the dead.
