Anniversary Gifts

Every year, characters receive a birthday gift to mark the date they were created. As they grow into seasoned adventurers, they receive special items like backpack skins, weapon skins, and even a full set of armor skins. Check out the full list on our official wiki to see what your characters will receive on their next birthday!

The oldest characters were created on August 25, 2012 during the early access period prior to Guild Wars 2‘s launch. Those characters will begin receiving their seventh birthday gift on August 25, 2019.

A Victorious Anniversary Achievement Box will be delivered to the first character to reach the seven-year milestone on your account, and contains the following:
