Everquest: Empires of Kunark

Hola!  It's been a good minute since I've visited but I wanted to take a few to share some highlights of the new expansion!

EverquestLive hosted a live feed today to provide further insight and details about the upcoming 23rd Everquest expansion - Empires of Kunark.

Members of the EQ Team, Ry "Roshen" Schueller, Jonathan "Brathen" Caraker and Josh "Augur" Augustine were briefely joned by Holly "Windstalker" Longdale and a new EQ Producer Lauren McLemore to share some of the details regarding the expansion, beta and launch.

Pre-Orders are available NOW!  First and foremost, Beta Access is granted immediately to anyone who preorders the expansion.  That means, if you pre-order the game today, you can immediately jump into Beta and start earning that reward currency.  Also, a unique monument statue will be granted to anyone who pre-orders the expansion.  The statue, a kneeling Iksar in armor and sword set inside a structure with four pillars, can be placed in homes and in guild halls as a centerpiece attraction.

Launch Date is scheduled for Wednesday, November 16th and in honor of the upcoming launch, EQ will have their usual Bi-Weekly incentives to get you into the game - Bonus XP Days, Rare Spawn Bonuses, Reduced Lockouts.

Read on to learn more about the features for this new expansion...
