SOE has released a preview of the next big update for its hit MMORPG title, EverQuest 2.
The update, Elements of Corruption, will bring new life to a part of the world of Norrath. Lavastorm is a zone that shipped with the original retail version of EQ2 over four years ago, and is well known by all players of the game.
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.
Nice to see they're still updating this game. WoW is the same age - it's unthinkable they would stop updating that though!
More empahsis on solo play with high-level solo content and all the population re-tiered for solo. Perhaps the community is growing less-interested in large group play and guilds.
