| Everquest Celebrates Fans with Living Legacy Promotion The EverQuest franchise, the fantasy series that redefined massively multiplayer online (MMO) video games for a generation of gamers around the globe, is bringing a near decade of success back to millions of fans with a new Living Legacy program from Sony Online Entertainment, which will feature in-game events, promotions, game updates and more. Living Legacy is a brand-new initiative aimed at the millions of players who have experienced the vast, engaging online worlds of EverQuest (EQ) and EverQuest II (EQII) since the original EQ game was launched in 1999. The celebration continues through until the end of September. As part of the promotion both EQ and EQII subscribers with inactive accounts who left in good standing will be able to log back into the games and play for free until the end of July. While the Living Legacy program is aimed at former EQ and EQII players, the program also offers a perfect way for new players to experience the world of Norrath. Nostalgic NPCs and group PvE encounters, as well as brand new raid content, will commemorate EQ's hardcore heritage. The program features bonus XP weekends, several live events, new content updates and the introduction of new zones all taking place in EQII. Returning EQII players will also be able to experience Rise of Kunark, EQII's fourth expansion, which just became the game's best-selling expansion of all time. Key features of the Living Legacy program include: - All qualified returning EQ players will receive the EverQuest Secrets of Faydwer all-in-one compilation and bonus in-game items at no additional cost. - All qualified returning EQII players will receive the EverQuest II Rise of Kunark all-in-one compilation and bonus in-game items at no additional cost. - All software provided during the promotional period will be credited to any EQ or EQII account that is converted to a valid, paying monthly subscription. - Current EQII players who recruit a friend to play the game who converts to a valid subscription will receive free gameplay-time added upon conclusion of their then-current subscription. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Game News :: home page |
