Sony Online Entertainment Announces Oathbreaker

Sony Online Entertainment has announced the release of Oathbreaker, the fourth set of the EverQuest franchise online strategy game, Legends of Norrath. Oathbreaker continues to draw upon the influence of SOE's EverQuest franchise, adding fun and familiar elements, including items and characters beautifully illustrated with high-fantasy flair.

Oathbreaker will enthrall players with a tale of corruption from within, and redemption that comes at a terrible cost, providing an unprecedented level of drama in the ongoing saga. While Oathbreaker brings the story of your Oathbound hero to a dramatic finale, new gameplay builds on existing functionality and allows for even more creative strategies to emerge.

Developed at SOE's Denver studio, Legends of Norrath is the only online strategy game based on and playable from SOE's EverQuest and EverQuest II MMOs, as well as from a stand-alone client using a free SOE Station Account. Players can challenge opponents on their game server and across other EQ and EQII servers.

Oathbreaker's features include:
- New Cards – More than 250 new cards for your online arsenal. Collect all 210 base set cards, four starter decks featuring 16 new quests and three random rares, 10 scenario rewards, fantastic new loot cards for EverQuest and EverQuest II and lots of new promotional cards.
- Play for Free - SOE is providing all registered LoN users even more complimentary content and bonus features in the game client, including ten new scenarios that tell the tale of Oathbreaker and a brand new raid.
- New Raid Play – In the Antechamber of Fate, up to four players can face off against the powerful island guardian Chel'Drak, the dragon turtle.
- New Gameplay – "Charge" is a new keyword that provides additional bonuses to cards while players have, or get rid of, their charge tokens. Re-linkable navigation offers greater flexibility in play by allowing linked cards to be linked again to a new target.
- New Faces - Delve into new avatar races (Froglok and Erudite), unit types, legends, keywords and abilities. Explore more of your favorite EverQuest and EverQuest II classes with the introduction of "unarmed" Monks, Coercers, Templars and Beastlords (with their warder pets).
