The roller beetle mount was added to Guild Wars 2 in June’s Living World Episode 3, Long Live the Lich. To help speed players on their way toward the podium and racing glory, Episode 3 will be free to all players until January 7, 2019. For new players, NPC race officials at each course starting line will let players rent a roller beetle mount for the express purpose of racing, ensuring that everybody can let rubber meet the road.
