Though just five words long, it challenged players to live in a virtual world beyond anything they'd experienced before--and delivered. The game that proved the MMORPG's potential, EverQuest outsold all prior entries in the genre and was the most popular subscription game in North America for five years until Blizzard's World of Warcraft overthrew it.

Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
