The next addition to the monumental EverQuest II franchise, Destiny of Velious is currently scheduled for release on February 8, 2011. Destiny of Velious will be sold in an all-in-one compilation pack, loaded with the EQII base game, seven expansions and three adventure packs.

In this exciting addition to EverQuest II, new and veteran players will be transported to the legendary Great Wastes of Velious, where towering dungeons, dangerous beasts and epic storylines provide the ultimate MMO experience. Destiny of Velious will launch adventurers into the sky, delivering an impressive new feature; flying mounts.

Following the events of Sentinel's Fate, the twin Swords of Destiny, Soulfire and the Qeynos Claymore, have been drained of their powers, setting the stage for the destruction of the EverQuest universe. The prophecy known as Age's End begins to unfold in the legendary continent of Velious, and it's here that the war for Norrath will arise. If there is to be any chance of saving Norrath, the Swords of Destiny must be restored.

Norrathian guardians who undertake this burden will be tested by labyrinthine dungeons, the harsh Velious tundra, and powerful creatures including the God of War himself, Rallos Zek. To succeed will mean ultimate glory. To fail could mean annihilation.
