"EverQuest" Is 8 Years Old -- That's 14,712 In MMO Years

Yes, "EverQuest," the seminal MMORPG launched in the last millennium, is celebrating its eighth birthday.

SOE today announced an "Anniversary Edition" box set, for release on April 23rd. The box set contains the basic game and every single EQ expansion, including the most recent, "The Buried Sea."

On March 16th, EQ is launching a patch with tons of new content, as part of the anniversary celebration.

Of course, SOE sent out the press release, but hasn't updated any of their sites. This always happens. Even GGL does this.
