Following last week’s launch for the EverQuest and EverQuest II subscribers, the EQ-based digital online trading card game Legends of Norrath is now available to the masses in a free stand-alone version. The client can be downloaded at no charge from the Legends of Norrath website, though you’ll have to fork over some cash to purchase cards, which run $9.99 for a 55-card digital starter deck and $2.99 a pop for 15-card booster packs.
“When we showed Legends of Norrath at GenCon last month, it was just as big a hit with hobby and strategy gamers as it has been with our EQ and EQII players,” said Scott Martins, Director of Development for SOE-Denver. “We’ve had a great run so far with the exclusive access we’ve provided for our existing fans, and can’t wait to bring it to a much wider audience with today’s release. New players will be able to enjoy the game in a single worldwide community with thousands of people that span its own client as well as both of our EverQuest MMOs.”
