Furious Capsuleers,

With the return of the Anger Games now underway, the next round of Abyssal Proving Grounds action is dedicated to the beloved community-run tournament. What does that mean? This time 1V1 cruiser combat comes with a hot-headed twist. All ships that enter this Proving Ground clash will receive a special bonus that doubles the benefits gained from overheating the following module groups:

• Tackle Modules
• Propulsion Modules
• Repair Modules
• Resistance Modules
• Energy Warfare Modules Turrets
• Launchers

That means you can expect furiously intense, dramatic action throughout the one day this 1V1 event, which takes pla...

Ambitious Capsuleers!

From 26-30 May, you can take advantage of a 2 for 1 offer on both Skill Extractors and Alpha Injectors!

With a Skill Extractor applied to your account, you can take existing Skill Points from a character, and then re-assign them elsewhere. If you’ve traveled down a training path that no longer serves your goals, you can use these Extractors to quickly catch up elsewhere.

Alpha Injectors, on the other hand, make it easy to quickly apply 50,000 Skill Points to your Alpha pilot of choice. It’s the perfect way to speed up your training goals, and get your new career off to a faster start!

Both Skill Extractors and ...

Democratically minded Capsuleers!

Over the last couple of weeks, we have reviewed all the CSM applications to ensure that they meet the outlined guidelines and eligibility requirements. We initially made a commitment this round of aiming to have a 72-hour turnaround for applicants this term. We acknowledge that we didn’t hit that number as close as we’d hoped with every single applicant due to a combination of issues surrounding both Fanfest and COVID-19 illness across the team, but we did still get the bulk of the applications confirmed in record time.

To give a summary and reminder of the timeline for upcoming CSM17 ke...

Fanfest-loving Capsuleers,

Fanfest 2022 has reached its conclusion, and we couldn’t have dreamed of a better event to reunite our community after too many years apart.

Bringing together so many of the EVE community in-person provided a very special opportunity to catch-up, share memories of the stories we’ve made and played together in New Eden, and get enthused about what is becoming a very exciting future for EVE Online. Fanfest may have ended, but there’s a lot to look forward to in New Eden!

And aside from the parties, pub-crawls and off-site adventures around Iceland, Fanfest saw all kinds of news stories, announcements, and insights about coming changes that will make EVE even better, as we power towards the third decade.

Through a series of presentations, developer interviews, roundtables and panels – many of whic...

Fellow Capsuleers,

After four incredibly long years, it is finally time to welcome you to our home in Reykjavik for EVE Fanfest! Next week, pilots from across the globe will be descending on the rock in force to paint the town in exclusive New Eden fashion (please expect some TiDi at local pubs). Together, we will celebrate the 19th anniversary of EVE Online and – most importantly – the fantastic community that inhabits its universe.

We are returning to a familiar location this year. The Laugardalshöll venue hosted many EVE Fanfest events in the past, and it will take on a recognizable look thanks to our generous hosts from the Caldari State. The schedule is packed with presentations, roundtables, wacky events, parties, and other activities that we all love when attending EVE Fanfest.

For everyone who cannot make it to meet with us in person, we will have a live broadcast of the event on ...
