EverQuest Going To PS2

by Maarten Goldstein Apr 09, 2002 7:32am CST tags: RPG News
Many people emailed us about the news that EverQuest is coming to the Playstation 2. There is some more info on this EQ site (thanks starless). EQ for the PS2 will launch in spring 2003. It won't actual be a direct port, as the game is set 500 years before the events of the PC version.

EverQuest Online Adventures is a completely new game, designed to take full advantage of the PlayStation 2 system’s capabilities. But like the original EverQuest, it will feature intricate character development, continuous player interaction and a strong sense of community, which is sure to create a phenomenon that PlayStation 2 gamers have never experienced before. With an installed base of more than 8.8 million units in the U.S., the PlayStation 2 represents an opportunity to expand the massively multiplayer online role-playing game onto new platforms, delivering a whole new genre to the console gamer.
