In addition to the previously-reported movie featuring some of the character models that North American and European EQII players will soon be able to use, SoE has posted some new snapshots of samples from each race. These models were developed by Taiwan studio SOGA, and designed to cater to the tastes of Eastern audiences- but there's no doubt Western players will be happy for the opportunity to choose a new look for their avatars.

Coming soon to a server near you... SOGA models! The long-awaited SOGA models are almost here, and we have the scoop. In Live Update #16, scheduled to go out on November 9, you will be able to use either the new SOGA models or the original character models. Earlier this year, rumors of these mysterious models spread through the EverQuest II community. Many of you expressed an interest in using these models, so we decided to make them available to you!



A little more background on the SOGA models: These character models were created as part of the EverQuest II East project, in which Sony Online Entertainment partnered with Gamania to form SOGA and truly localize EQII for the Asian market. Not only did we create new character models, but user interface modifications have been made (such as click to move) along with other changes to make EQII East appeal to the markets in China, Korea, and Taiwan.
