So, has anyone actually heard of Guild Wars Utopia? It was set to release in August 2007, but when Guild Wars 2 was decided on instead, it was adapted into Eye of the North. It has been confirmed that it would have been campaign 4.
The production was apparently "well under way" by May 2006 and continued through July 2006. It was said to have been cancelled around January 2007.

Speculated features:
No features were ever confirmed, however horses and other mounts were featured in concept art, leading the community to think that mounts would have been a feature of Utopia.
Profession(s):
No solid information regarding professions was released either. Concept art and a forum post detailing a "Chronomancer" has been uncovered, though. In a fantasy setting, this is known as a "Time Mage." Concept art of characters dual-wielding weapons has also been discovered.

Setting:
Utopia was set to have an Aztec theme. This would have resulted in huge marketplaces, a giant arena, as well as pyramids, temples, ancient ruins, underground caves, volcanoes, totem poles, bridges (of both stone and rope) and massive waterfalls been implemented (as seen in concept art).

Oh how I would have loved to have seen this. The setting is so perfect and the Chronomancer would have been awesome! Not to mention mounts...
