Guild Wars 2's next expansion, Janthir Wilds, is releasing on August 20, and with it one of the biggest requests on the community's wishlist. Homesteads are a new player housing system, giving you a chance to own a piece of the expansion's new territory, and decorate and customise it to your liking.
You'll gain access to your Homestead during the expansion's campaign, as part of your early interactions with the new faction of Lowland Kodans—a tribe of bear folk with a fondness for cosy log cabins. It's an instanced space—there's no lottery here to claim a plot in a larger district, and there's no upkeep costs or chance of eviction. Once you've got it, it's yours—a patch of land to decorate however you wish.
