Farewell EverQuest OA as Sony Shuts Up Shop on Four MMOs
[b]Sony Online Entertainment is to close down MMOs EverQuest Online Adventures, Cosmic Rift, Infantry and [I]Star Chamber: The Harbinger Saga[/i].

Joystiq reports that, "To appease its remaining EQOA customers, SOE is offering three months of gold membership in both EverQuest and EverQuest II for current subscribers. This consolation prize will become effective on March 16th. SOE will also not be charging current players during March."

For its part, the SOE folks behind the game state that:

"It is with a heavy heart that we announce today the imminent sunsetting of four of our long-standing game services on March 29, 2012, including Cosmic Rift, Infantry, Star Chamber: The Harbinger Saga and EverQuest Online Adventures. Each of these games shares a special place in both ours and our players' hearts. This is not an easy decision, but there comes a time when it's best for our developers to move on to the next adventure, and that day has come."
