As a part of EverQuest Living Legacy, an initiative launched by Sony Online Entertainment designed to resurrect interest in EQ games, EverQuest II has received Storm Break, a free update that is available now to all EQII players.

Storm Break continues the in-game Void Storms event, one of many details that comprise the Living Legacy campaign. In Storm Break, players experience "The Battle", a call-to-arms issued to all denizens of Norrath to defend their home world from a coming attack.

Players will be more easily able to keep track of one another during Storm Break via the free voice chat functionality recently integrated into EverQuest II. Additionally, other events such as the construction of Guild Halls serve to mark Norrath as a living, breathing virtual reality which SOE hopes players will continue to enjoy.
