Go Back To a Bygone Era With EverQuest Legends

EverQuest Legends has been designed from the ground up to appeal to players who enjoy playing their games solo and/or casually. While groups (up to 4 players) and raids (up to 8 players) are available, the entire game can be played, enjoyed, and experienced solo if that's your playstyle. In keeping with this approach to the game, EverQuest Legends provides players with the ability to create immensely powerful characters by, among other things, selecting up to three active different classes per character (for example, you can make a rogue/paladin/wizard) and utilizing new ways to upgrade weapons and armor.

As you level up and improve your gear in EverQuest Legends, you will eventually gain the ability to take on the most difficult game content, whether alone or with a small group of friends.Whether you're an existing EverQuest player, a former player, or a new player that has never experienced the world of Norrath, EverQuest Legends offers the opportunity to enjoy everything classic EverQuest has to offer, plus a lot more! At launch, EverQuest Legends will feature the continents of Antonica, Faydwer, and Odus (pre-Kunark), and all of the EverQuest playable races (including Iksar, Frogloks, and Kerran), all featured in the original EverQuest art style, including the classic graphics, zones, spell effects, loot, and music … plus more than a few new surprises!

  • Experience Classic EverQuest EverQuest Legends features all of the magic and nostalgia of classic EverQuest, including the original art style, graphics, zones, spell effects, loot, and music. Enjoy the game as it hasn't been seen, heard, or experienced in over 20 years.

With 15 available races and 560 possible class combinations, the possibilities for forging the ultimate character are virtually endless.
  • Adventure… Your Way – With the additional power provided to player characters and the many benefits of a modernized gaming experience, EverQuest Legends makes it possible for players to progress through the game at their own pace and to forge their own adventures, whether alone or with others.
