Considering that Sony Online Entertainment president John Smedley has already stated he expects half of their business to manifest on the PlayStation 3, it's a no-brainer that future as-of-yet announced titles are looking at a console release. Until today we didn't have a single clue as to what game that would be, now it's looking like EverQuest is a strong candidate.

Gamasutra's recent interview with the SOE prez reveals that not only has EverQuest continued to be a strong property for the developer, but that a PS3 release isn't out of the question. In fact, as far as SOE is concerned their first venture into console MMOs was simply a couple years too early -- oh the joys of using that PS2 network adapter. While we don't know the exact form a newly minted console EverQuest could take, our guess would be some kind of spin-off along the lines of EverQuest Online Adventures. The possibilities are certainly intriguing.Future of EverQuest bright and possibly console bound originally appeared on Massively on Thu, 29 Jan 2009 10:30:00 EST.
