Record high attendance, EverQuest Next debut, and how you can stay informed!

Sony Online Entertainment announced today that it has sold out of advance passes and will have a record setting attendance for this year's annual convention, SOE Live (formerly Fan Faire), which will be held from August 1 - 4 at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas. Those who were planning to obtain walk-in badges should get there early as "the extremely limited number of tickets that have been reserved for walkups are expected to sell out quickly."

"Between the addition of our PlanetSide 2 and DC Universe Online communities, and the crowds anticipating the debut of EverQuest Next, this will be an extraordinary SOE Live," said Laura Naviaux, Senior Vice President of Global Sales & Marketing, Sony Online Entertainment. "Our players are our extended family, so every year we look for new ways to make SOE Live one of their best weekends ever. The official reveal of EverQuest Next is a long time coming, and we absolutely cannot wait for August 2. We're confident that it, along with the keynotes, pool party, panels, talent show and costume contest, will blow everyone away!"
