Now, of course, Blizzard's Warcraft wears the crown, but that hasn't put the skids on the EverQuest train. In fact, it's just celebrated its ten-year anniversary. Here, in a mammoth interview, we chat with current lead designer Ryan Barker, who's been on the EQ team since 2001, to mark the tenth birthday of one of the granddaddies of MMO gaming."
During EG7’s Capital Markets Day stream earlier today, EG7’s CEO Ji Ham discussed several in-development projects including a potential EverQuest 3 that is in an early “ideation phase”.
In the “Producer’s Letter April 2023,” the team behind the MMORPG said the new UI Engine for the game releases in April, more Tempest Festival content is arriving in May, and Pride Month familiars are returning come June.
Earlier this month, Everquest 2 announced a new loot box system that bypassed lockouts and provided the chance to buy more opportunities at raid gear through the cash shop.
