EverQuest Legends devs: new classes and races possible long-term, unlikely by Kunark

GG Brief Editorial Desk · AI-assisted, source attributed

Developers from Daybreak Games and Game Jawn discussed adding new classes and races for EverQuest Legends during a Twitch stream. Daybreak executive producer David Youssefi said another class is unlikely to appear with the upcoming Kunark expansion but would not be ruled out for the game's longer-term vision, a view echoed by Game Jawn CEO Eda Spause. Lead content designer Eric Wellman emphasized the decision depends on how much work is required and whether it’s worth that work. The change would expand playable options beyond the game's current roster and original kerran race in the multiclass ARPG remix.

• Daybreak Games and Game Jawn developers floated adding new races and classes for EverQuest Legends during a Twitch stream.
• David Youssefi stated adding another class by the upcoming Kunark expansion is unrealistic, but the team would consider it as a longer-term goal.
• Eric Wellman said adding classes is a matter of workload and value; Eda Spause agreed it could be worthwhile but limited by development realities.
• EverQuest Legends already includes every class from modern EverQuest and an original playable race, the kerran, so new classes would introduce additional playstyles to the multiclass-focused ARPG.
