EverQuest II players may not have heard much about the island of Zek, but that’s for a good reason: The small landmass was all but uninhabited until recently, the unfortunate fallout of an ancient war. However, Zek will reopen for business next month with the release of GU 100, and Daybreak has a short preview for high-level players looking for a new challenge.
Zek has been the staging ground for many battles and incursions in the past, and when it opens its borders to players, it will be in the midst of a new struggle. A band of orcs is trying to take over the entire island, which means stomping out the last remnant of the dying forest. Players will take up the cause of the woods and its defenders when they arrive.
GU 100 is scheduled to arrive on April 28th but will be available only for subscribers. The entire update is aimed at high-level characters.
