Overview
- Daybreak and Game Jawn announced Tuesday that EverQuest Legends will open a closed beta in April and launch on PC in July 2026, with sign-ups live now.
- At release the game restores the original 1999 art, music, and zones and starts with pre-Kunark Antonica plus every playable race, including Iksar, Frogloks, and Kerran.
- The design supports full solo progression alongside small-group play, capping parties at four and raids at eight to reduce time pressure and coordination hurdles.
- Characters can equip up to three classes at once and upgrade gear to +10, with systems that let players move or combine focus, click, and proc effects to tailor builds.
- PC Gamer’s GDC reporting says Legends will sit outside the live EverQuest economy with no use or transfer of Kronos, signaling a separate model from the main MMOs.
