When I log into EverQuest Legends, there’s an insect next to me. It can leave me dying – Murderbee. And though I don’t want aggro, it is still nearby and chasing me. It will drop my health bar, Murderbee. Murderbee, Murderbee Murderbee, Murderbee – This weekend, get your own pet Murderbee. If you...
Choose My Adventure: Dungeon delves to wrap up my opening stint in EverQuest Legends
Sure, I could do what last week’s polls told me to do and visit one dungeon in EverQuest Legends, but what about visiting two of them instead? That’s right, dear readers, I went totally off the rails, put on my best party hat, and hopped into a couple of classic delves for my run through this game....
EverQuest Legends Reminds Us Why MMOs Still Matter
EverQuest Legends updates the classic 1999 MMORPG, with 4K HD visuals and improvements to game play and user friendliness. The post EverQuest Legends Reminds Us Why MMOs Still Matter appeared first on COGconnected.
Choose My Adventure: Cat Bard goes a-slaying in EverQuest Legends’ Steamfont Mountains
I continue to be surprised by the results of the polls for EverQuest Legends. So far they’ve been either extremely close or extremely obvious, and while last week’s polling started out as the former, it slowly climbed into the latter until it was a literal dead heat. As per tradition, a coin toss...
EverQuest Legends revamps classic Unrest, where the skelly laughter still haunt our dreams
EverQuest II isn’t the only EverQuest MMORPG getting love today: EverQuest Legends is also following up last week’s Castle Mistmoore content patch with another whopper, this one focused on the zone of Unrest, which frankly is significantly more traumatizing to me as an old-school EQ player. The...
EverQuest Legends dev says 'I'm sure we would' add new classes, races 'in the longer-term vision of the game'

EverQuest Legends has revamped the classic Mistmoore Castle with today’s update
Just a few weeks post-launch, Game Jawn and Daybreak are already delivering a juicy content patch to EverQuest spinoff EverQuest Legends, focusing largely on the classic Mistmoore Castle zone. “Mistmoore Castle has received a major upgrade,” Game Jawn says in its natch potes. “In addition to named...
Choose My Adventure: Cat Bard goes marching through the open fields in EverQuest Legends
There were two things that were immediately evident in last week’s entry of Choose My Adventure. One, Cat Bard is not meant to go away anytime soon if at all; and two, I was definitely playing EverQuest Legends on hard mode. That second one definitely didn’t surprise me, though. I had my...
EverQuest Legends is the only MMO that could hook me in 2026
Admittedly, I am a very specific type of guy.
EverQuest Legends preps cursor resizing, group XP benefits, and a cash shop mount August 18
The coming week is going to be bringing a patch to EverQuest Legends, and if you’ve dreamed of having a bristly boar as a mount, some more XP while in a group, or the ability to change the size of your mouse cursor in the game, then Game Jawn has you covered when its next patch arrives […]
Choose My Adventure: EverQuest Legends is off to a clunky, slow, and intriguing start
I can’t say that I’m too surprised to see EverQuest Legends win out as our chosen game for this month’s ride through Choose My Adventure. I’ve certainly been curious to peek in for a little bit myself. I wouldn’t have put it in the polls if I weren’t, after all. Even if the original MMORPG kind […]
EverQuest Legends saw weekend outages, and gamers took it out on the community manager
Nobody likes to see a favorite MMORPG have problems during a weekend, especially if you’re lucky enough to have downtime during a traditional weekend (we wonder what that’s like most years). Unfortunately, login issues upended the weekend plans for many players of EverQuest Legends, which did get...

Learn how to get to Kerra Isle, what to do if you are KoS with the Kerran, and how to get and improve the Kerran necklace in EverQuest Legends.
MMO Week in Review: I want to believe
Oh lawd he comin’… Stars Reach, that is. We are exactly 16 days away from the early access launch of Stars Reach, and as much as we want the game, we’re all holding our breath over the growing belief that it’s not ready. Meanwhile, EverQuest Legends actually properly launched, Elder Scrolls Online...

Betawatch: Stars Reach sets course for early access, EverQuest Legends successfully launches
With Stars Reach having announced that its paid early access is starting in just a couple of weeks on August 18th, I am eventually going to need to make a Betawatch header for the game that does not feature the lad I have personally named Tusky McMammoth. For now, however, Tusky graces another...
EQ Legends: How to Create Instance
Learn how to create a personal instance in EverQuest Legends and what to do if the feature is not working.
EverQuest Legends’ release sees at least one small patch and overall stable response from fans
It should come as little surprise to our regular readers here that we’d be checking in on EverQuest Legends after its first full day of release, and by all immediate accounts, things appear to be running stably and smoothly. Or at least in such a way that there’s not a column of smoke rising on the...

EverQuest Legends is adding playable Kerran for this week’s launch, set for tomorrow at 3p EDT
If EverQuest Legends’ self-imposed mission is experimenting with a classic formula to make it even better, it’s crushing it for launch week with the surprise addition of a fan-favorite race. We already knew that EverQuest Legends would be launching tomorrow on Tuesday, July 28th, but Game Jawn and...
The Daily Grind: Is there MMO discourse you’re tired of seeing?
Earlier this month, two different MMOs, Aion 2 and EverQuest Legends, revealed their monetization plans in the same week, and it was exhausting. To hear angry gamers tell it, both games are egregiously pay-to-win and dead on arrival. Guys, I’ve been doing this as a job over 16 years, and every...
The EverQuest Legends studio will host a panel at SDCC 2026 covering its development journey
It’s been a long road from the original EverQuest to EverQuest Legends, and for nostalgic fans who are eager to enjoy the game’s full launch, you can walk that road yourself if you’re attending the San Diego Comic-Con this year. The EQL team is hosting a panel dubbed “From 1999 to EverQuest...
