Guild Wars 2 April Fools update brings Giant Cats

The cats will appear all across the world near social hotspots for the users. You can launch the game this week and you will see that you’ve received a message from a mysterious cat. Once you open the mail, you will find a stack of potions. When quaffed, you will find some small cats start spawning in the world. If you run over to one of the cats, you will receive a brief stack of might. And from here, you should be able to find a number of Giant Cats in the environment.
