For those who have dreamt of a return to the world of classic EverQuest, but just don’t have the time (or the number of friends) needed to progress in the infamously grindy MMORPG, the newly announced EverQuest Legends is offering a solution.

Everquest Legends is a new spin on the genre-defining MMO from 1999, one that will keep the game’s original visuals, music, and world but has been “designed from the ground up” to appeal to casual players, according to developer Daybreak Games.
