Daybreak Games announces the release of the Terrors of Thalumbra expansion for EverQuest II, which is now available through the EverQuest II website. This will soon be followed by the release of The Broken Mirror expansion for the original EverQuest, which they say will show up sometime tomorrow on the EverQuest website. Word is: "These exciting additions to the long-running, massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) series bring new solo and group adventures, features, challenges and more to the world of Norrath." Here's more on each:

WHAT TO EXPECT: The Broken Mirror brings four new expansion zones and three revamped zones to the original EverQuest, as well as instanced, scalable versions of the Plane of Hate and Plane of Fear for level 75-105 raids. It adds new quests, missions, heroic adventures and raids to take on, while introducing new spells, AAs (Alternate Advancements) and a convenient Illusion Key Ring.

WHAT TO EXPECT: Thalumbra is a new overland zone featuring a new contested zone and special quests for Adventure and Tradeskill players. It includes scalable, level-agnostic dungeons for players levels 20-94, plus raid zones, heroic dungeons and advanced solo dungeons for level 100 players. Terrors of Thalumbra evolves the Deity system and also brings the new Item Infusion upgrade system and new best-in-slot relics to EverQuest II.
