EverQuest is a classic MMORPG released in 1999. It pioneered the genre and still maintains a loyal niche following due to regular updates from Daybreak Game Company and nostalgia-driven servers. As an aging title, its active player base is modest compared to modern MMOs, but it remains one of the longer-lasting examples of the genre, estimated at several thousand daily active players.
