Sony Online Entertainment (creators of the ground breaking MMORPG EverQuest and it’s not-quite-so-good sequel EverQuest II) have become the latest in a string of high-profile deals with Valve’s awesome Steam service, joining EA who released some of their higher-profile games (such as Spore and Dead Space) in December of last year.
The SOE developed and/or published titles now available include the complete EverQuest and EverQuest II collections, as well as Vanguard: Saga of Heroes® and Pirates of the Burning Sea. To kick off this monumental event, Pirates of the Burning Sea, Vanguard: Saga of Heroes, EverQuest: Secrets of Faydwer and EverQuest II: Rise of Kunark are being offered by Valve at a special introductory price for the first 10 days the games are available for purchase on Steam. New SOE game accounts for the game purchased will also receive 30 days of gameplay included with purchase (this offer excludes existing game and Station Access accounts).
So EverQuest, EverQuest 2 and their recently released expansion packs, (Seeds of Destruction and The Shadow Odyssey) Pirates of the Burning Sea and Vanguard: Saga of Heroes are all now available on Steam for special introductory prices The complete EverQuest Compilation pack is a bargain at £19.99, if you have a billion hours free to play it.
SOE is currently developing the DC Universe MMO which will surely now be released on Steam. If it ever comes out that is.
