Highguard gets a new playable character, skill trees and more ahead of next week's closure

Highguard goes offline on March 12—that’s in eight days—but it’s nevertheless just received a massive content update adding a new playable Warden, account progression, and a skill tree.

“This is our final update and it’s big,” Highguard creative director Jason McCord wrote on X. “Props to the skeleton crew at Wildlight for wanting to finish it and ship it to our remaining players, even if it only gets played by a few thousand people. They weren’t asked to. They asked if they could finish it up and get it out there.”
