EverQuest
March 1999 (26 years ago)
EverQuest is a 3D fantasy-themed massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) released on March 16, 1999. Players move their character throughout the medieval fantasy world of Norrath, often fighting monsters and enemies for treasure and experience points, and optionally mastering trade skills. As they progress, players advance in level, gaining power, prestige, spells, and abilities through valorous deeds such as entering overrun castles and keeps, defeating worthy opponents found within, and looting their remains. Experience and prestigious equipment can also be obtained by completing quests given out by non-player characters found throughout the land. EverQuest allows players to interact with other people through role-play, joining player guilds, and dueling other players (in restricted situations – EverQuest only allows player versus player (PVP) combat on the PvP-specific server, specified arena zones and through agreed upon dueling).

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.
