EverQuest has officially released its most recent expansion with “Torment of Velious” that will have giants return to the icy southern region of Norrath.
This will make the 26th expansion to EQ and will bring six new zones, crafting recipes, raids, quests, missions, and more for players to explore. The level cap will also be increased from 110 to 115.
The expansion adds the icy southern continent of Velious, where the natives are suffering and in need of heroes. The snow-covered landscape has been warped, changed so that it is suddenly flowing into the sky.
The restless ice has begun to infect the inhabitants and is animating the dead — turning everything it touches into zombie-like creatures. Those afflicted appear to be covered with a shifting sheen of ice that twists and flows over their bodies.
New zones added in the southern continent include Crystal Caverns, Eastern Wastes, Great Divide, Kael Drakkel, Tower of Froze Shadow, and Veiketor.
Each of these news zones — although ice-themed and frozen over — has its own characteristics and continues to story of what’s happening to the continent. Heroes from Norrath will be called upon to bring all their wits and equipment to bear, hopefully also warm clothing, and investigate what’s happening and bring it to a stop.
Four versions of the expansion are available for EQ players including a Standard Edition with a price of $34.99, Collector’s Edition at $89.99, Premium Edition for $139.99 and Family & Friends Edition for $249.99.
EverQuest celebrated its 20th anniversary this year as the game continues to grow and provide an MMORPG experience to players.
