A Remake Of 1999’s Everquest Might Put Off Old-School Players But Sounds Perfect For Me

The fact that EverQuest is still going in 2026, 27 years since it launched on March 16, 1999, is extraordinary. Sony Online Entertainment’s MMO arrived five years before World of Warcraft and, like its arch-rival, is still enjoyed today. That’s in large part thanks to continual development and regular expansions, and the game’s miraculous survival after Sony sold the whole of SOE to a private equity firm, whereupon the division was renamed Daybreak Game Company. But now (thanks Gematsu), in news that has made this middle-aged man happy, the original version of EverQuest is being re-imagined and will return as EverQuest Legends.
