Guild Wars 1 is subject to the sanction as it's actually included in the original article. ~ GW2 was just released, today so it wasn't...But, it will be, if it already has not been...So, no they can't play GW2 instead.

Arena Net HQ are in Washington. Also the US. They are subject to the same sanctions as Blizzard. No sales/support to Iran.
