Sony Online Entertainment Announces EverQuest(R) Prophecy of Ro(TM) Expansion for EverQuest(R)
Tuesday January 3, 3:00 pm ET
"EverQuest Prophecy of Ro will give players the opportunity to interact with and transform the online world of Norrath like never before," said Chris Sturr, Sr. Brand Manager, Sony Online Entertainment. "In addition to a variety of new features, EverQuest Prophecy of Ro continues the fascinating storyline as new and old players alike explore, battle and adventure through EverQuest on more than 30 new missions encountering new creatures and environments throughout the journey."
Players will be able to interact with the world thanks to three new features. The first, spheres of influence, can be used to thwart your enemies or aid allies. The second feature is a trap system that will let players deceive opponents with player-set traps. And for the first time in EverQuest, players will be able to destroy objects in the world; doors can be bashed in, walls can be toppled and towers can be destroyed, leading to a new level of interactivity within the game and opening up a new realm of design.
About EverQuest Prophecy of Ro
The gods have returned and the mortal realm shifts with their influence. But a new presence walks among the gods, a malevolent force released into godhood by the follies of mortals. Unbound by the laws of the pantheon, it leaves corruption in its wake and threatens to bring the entire pantheon crumbling down. The only hope for Norrath hangs on the very mortals who have unleashed this upheaval. EverQuest Prophecy of Ro includes the following features:
* Player-set Traps: Control your battles before they even begin by
deceiving your opponents with a new arsenal of player-set traps!
* Spheres of Influence: Transform the world of Norrath by creating
magical spheres of influence to thwart your enemies or aid your allies.
These artifacts will create a localized area where the rules of the
game can change.
* Destructible Objects: Interact with and destroy pieces of the game
world leading to a new level of interactivity within the game. Chop
down doors, tumble walls, and destroy encampments!
* Buff Filters: Decide which buffs you would rather auto-decline with the
new buff filtering system!
* 8 New Bank Spaces
* New Missions: Battle your way through over 30 new missions.
* New Creatures, New Environments and New Encounters: More than 25 unique
creatures, 7 Zones, and 6 Small Instances.
* New Spells, Tasks, Disciplines and Trade skills
The new expansion will be downloadable via the EverQuest Station Store for U.S. $29.99 (plus tax where applicable). Retailers will be offering a boxed version that will carry a suggested retail price of $29.99, as well as a special in-game item, a Warhorse mount, for players to enjoy.
