Atlanta, GA - White Wolf Publishing and Sony Online Entertainment Inc. announce a summer 2002 release of a pen and paper role-playing game, based on the immensely popular massively multiplayer online role-playing game, EverQuest®.
The new EverQuest role-playing game will be released by White Wolf's Sword & Sorcery design studio as a series of three hardcover core rulebooks beginning with the EverQuest Role-playing Game: Player's Handbook this June. Based on EverQuest's richly detailed fantasy world of Norrath and featuring pen and paper rules that are fully compatible with the most popular existing pen and paper fantasy rules system. The EverQuest role-playing game will open up new avenues of play to both EverQuest players and veteran pen and paper fantasy role-players.

With an active global EverQuest subscriber base comprised of players from various countries throughout the "real world", including the United States, England, Canada, Japan, Taiwan, Korea, Saudi Arabia, France, Germany, Italy and Australia, EverQuest proves to be the largest fantasy world ever created online. More than 410,000 EverQuest players will be able to easily convert their online characters to EverQuest role-playing game characters and explore the world of Norrath in a whole new and exciting way.
