EverQuest's Holly Longdale has posted a new producer's letter to announce that the team has been working for the past year on a full-fledged expansion for the game. Longdale indicated that this expansion will bring content to high-level players along with new and updated 105 zones, fifteen raids, level-scaling missions, Heroic Adventures and two instanced raid zones, Plane of Fear and Plane of Hate, for players from 75-105 to experience together.

The Daybreak EverQuest forum has been updated with the announcement that a second progression server is in the works. The first, Ragefire, was built to be twice as large as those that came before, and it is packed to the rafters. The result of that is the forthcoming Lockjaw server now in the preparation stages.

Daybreak Game Company has announced that the Everquest progression server, Ragefire, has reopened. The server will run alongside current servers, but players will be able to experience the game as it was at launch in 1999 and as expansions launched over the years.

Every MMO gamer knows of the title “EverQuest.” Some of you actually played it, but the rest usually listen wearily while EQ veterans wax and wane about the so-called glory days. Regardless of your position on the game, there’s no doubting that EQ fans are some of the most passionate you’ll meet, and their insatiable appetite for nostalgia goes unrivaled.

No, we're not talking about daylight savings time, but the official launch date for the EverQuest progression server coming on May 20th. Named "Ragefire", the team anticipates that the server will be ready to go on the 20th in the afternoon after receiving a bit of "attention" after it's enabled earlier in the day.

EverQuest players will have a lot to look forward to with the introduction of what Holly Longdale calls "campaigns". Rather than a single annual expansion, players will enjoy twice-yearly 'campaign' DLC. Longdale explains that this helps keep the world fresh, packed with content and gives the team a very quick turn around on player feedback.

The folks at Daybreak are celebrating the 16th anniversary of EverQuest this week and we've got 16 30-Day All-Access Membership codes to give away to mark the occasion.

Today marks the official sixteenth anniversary of the launch of EverQuest. To celebrate, let's take a look back at the original launch trailer from 1999 (and let's party!) reposted by the EQ team in 2012.

Daybreak Game Studio has revealed the sixteenth anniversary celebration schedule and events for EverQuest. Players can look forward to special player-designed missions, Brew Day, Bristlebane Day and more.

The EverQuest team was on hand last week to give players the thumbs up on continuing development for the game. Among other things, it was announced that seven player-created missions will be arriving in next month's anniversary update, as well as the new loot system. In addition, a progressive server is still very much at the forefront but without solid plans at the moment pending a possible survey of players to see how they would like it to manifest.

On February 18, 2015 the team answered questions provided by players on our official forums and Twitch chat live during a stream on http://www.twitch.tv/daybreakgames

During the SOE Live celebrations of the past two years, EverQuest fans worked with developers to create Player-Designed Missions. This year marks EQ's sixteenth anniversary and these new missions will be the centerpiece of the celebration. The news was delivered in the first producer's letter of the year that lays out other details in store for the game.

The twenty-first EverQuest expansion has been released and will give players lots of time at the beach in pursuit of new quests, new gear and much more. Called "The Darkened Sea", the expansion gives players an opportunity to revisit characters and locations from the past that have been reimagined in new ways. Of note is the new "mount keyring" that places all mounts in a single location in order to free up inventory space.
