Await Space Mining's New Launch

In order to fine-tune the experience, we are shifting our planned December Space Mining and Howling Mine release to Q1 2025.

Resource Mayhem

The Colonial Administration has tasked the Calypso Defense Force (CDF) with holding a new resource drive to capitalize on the economic boom following the recent asteroid impact. This drive will allow colonists in all major professions to participate in the colony's growth while officially directing these resources where they are most needed.

As before, this allows individual colonists to be included in Colonial Administration supply chains by delivering select materials to CDF officials to unlock reward tiers. Due to the colony's shifting needs, some of the resources required will differ from the latest resource drive earlier this year.

Colonists wishing to participate in the drive are asked to contact the CDF representatives located in Fort Ithaca and Nymphtown for f...

Dear Entropia Community,

I would like to share some important updates on the development of Entropia and our journey to deliver an even more immersive and dynamic experience. We’ve made substantial progress across several technical fronts, and I wanted to provide a clear picture of where we stand today and what you can expect in the near future.

Technical Progress:

Development towards the release of the Entropia Unreal Engine experience is accelerating. Rather than taking a complete overhaul approach from the ground up, we’ve shifted to a more gradual, iterative process. We are now separating development into two distinct projects: the Unreal Engine client and the backend. These can be developed independently, which allows us to deliver tangible improvements to you much sooner than our previous approach would have permitted.

Key Benefits of This Approach:

We have been focusing on updating terrain textures, creatures, and character armor. All these assets have been crafted from the ground up with new models and textures.

2024 User Interface Update

...

The Entropia Universe User Interface (UI) is an extensively discussed topic within the MindArk team and our valued community. In our continuous quest to enhance the Entropia Universe gaming experience, we’ve embarked on a mission to resume and complete the UI update! This initiative stems from game performance tests and the valuable community feedback we’ve gathered since the initial start of the update process.

The old UI elements are a major factor in the Frames Per Second (FPS) drop linked to graphic lag issues. The decision to update the UI was rooted in improving the performance, achieving cohesive design, and resolving navigational challenges presented by diverse outdated window designs. We also recognized a need for visual enhancement, particularly in unifying the UI’...

Announcing Triton Industries Shares, Home of the Sand King

In December 2023, Triton Industries will expand Entropia Exchange with 500.000 Triton Industries Shares! The Entropia Exchange allows participants to acquire shares via virtual companies and receive revenue in the form of dividends from estates controlled by those companies. Triton Industries is now offering shares on Triton Island, a small island northeast of Amethera on planet Calypso, also known by Entropians as the “Sand King Island”!

You can access Triton Island by teleporting to Jameson's Reach or Naval Station Triton. The Oasis is located in the middle of the desert landscape, populated by the creature class Rextelum. The Rextelum was previously thought to be extinct before Governor Jameson's expedition found a healthy population located on the Island. This creature class is currently the largest arthropod known to science, and it is speculated that its sheer size keeps it safe fro...

Nanocube Changes

In an upcoming Version Update several changes are being made to Nanocubes, outlined below.
 

  • Nanocubes can no longer be purchased directly from the Trade Terminal.
  • Nanocubes are now obtained by using the new Recycle tab in the Trade Terminal interface.
  • Most items and resources can be recycled into Nanocubes, with a few exceptions: items sold at the Trade Terminal, non-tradeable items, and Shrapnel.
  • Recycled items generate a stack of Nanocubes with a value equivalent to the item’s Trade Terminal value.
  • Nanocubes can now be listed at auction.


These changes should result in a more healthy and interdependent economy, which will benefit hunters, miners, and crafters alike.

Entropia Enjin Collaboration

Ever evolving with new technologies, MindArk has been assessing recent blockchain developments and what they might offer to established virtual communities such as Entropia Universe. MindArk’s management team has determined that many of the recent gaming-related announcements in the blockchain space bear a lot of similarities to the experience that Entropia Universe has offered for nearly two decades, and thus large-scale integration of such technologies would not add significant value to the virtual universe experience.

There are, however, opportunities for targeted partnerships and system integrations which could extend the reach of Entropia Universe to new audiences, specifically enthusiasts of the “metaverse” and “play-to-earn” concepts that have received a lot of media attention recently. As such, MindArk has begun a collaboration with ...
