An update on the ProSiebenSat.1 transition was posted late this morning on the EQII forums : Sony Online Entertainment (SOE) and ProSiebenSat.1 Games Group will be furthering their partnership with the launch of EverQuest® II on or around June 20, 2013.

That means that European players will be able to play on U.S. servers and vice versa. Again, we appreciate you sharing your thoughts and opinions with us.
