Developed by a team with deep roots in the EverQuest community, EverQuest Legends features the magic and nostalgia of the original EverQuest alongside modern gameplay systems and numerous quality-of-life enhancements.

On that note, EverQuest Legends has been designed to support a more flexible playstyle, allowing players to experience the world of Norrath solo, in small groups of four, or in raids that feature up to eight players.

David Youssefi, executive producer of EverQuest Legends at Daybreak Games, said the following:

“EverQuest Legends is the manifestation of a game I’ve dreamt of for over 20 years.

As longtime EverQuest players, we’ve always been passionate about expanding EverQuest’s community, and we see EverQuest Legends as a wonderful entry point to new and returning fans of the franchise.

Thanks to our passionate team’s tireless work and all of the incredible feedback we’ve received from our community, we’re thrilled to be able to invite players to experience all of the magic the original EverQuest has to offer in a casual and solo-friendly format.”

We have a big day ahead! We've just posted a new Producer's Letter, with a link to the video of our San Diego Comic-Con panel, "From 1999 to EverQuest Legends!" with the Kerran reveal and our roadmap!https://t.co/S81RCNYbXF #everquestlegends #eql pic.twitter.com/f1mvBH0yv6
