The shape of New Eden has been altered forever in the aftermath of the Triglavian Invasion, so now it's time to rise from the ashes in "Phoenix", EVE Online's Quadrant 4!
Following on from the fantastic Fight or Flight, Eclipse, and Zenith Quadrants in 2020, Phoenix will end the year spectacularly in EVE Online with big changes to Supercarriers, continuous balance and meta changes, as well as the Crimson Harvest and Yoiul Festival events and much more!
Alton Haveri reports as P.A.P.I. and Imperium forces clash heavily in FWST-8, with the invaders twice attempting to anchor a Keepstar-class Citadel in the system. As the fighting has escalated over the 3 month conflict, consolidated P.A.P.I. forces have closed in on the region of Delve, resulting in the biggest ever number of Capsuleers involved in a battle in New Eden's history.
Alton Haveri reports as EDENCOM forces remain on high alert despite a lasting halt in major invasion operations by the Triglavian Collective. Monitoring and evacuation operations are underway throughout the 27 systems under Triglavian occupation, while the invaders continue to construct formidable defenses. Concerns also exist about the stability of New Eden's stargate network as intermittent and increasing power fluctuations are evident.
The second phase of the new Quantum Cores series of updates will be coming to EVE Online in mid-October! This big series of updates to structure gameplay in New Eden introduce Quantum Cores as necessary items in the deployment phase of structures. This follows on from Phase 1 of the Quantum Cores update that went live last month, and is important for any players interested in structures.
Phase 2 of the rollout will enforce the rule that requires Quantum Core installation to be carried out in order to complete the anchoring process for any newly deployed structures.

The Triglavian Collective continue to dovetail their invasion efforts by inviting Capsuleers to test their might in the Abyssal Proving Grounds within the depths of Abyssal Deadspace! Accessible through dedicated sets of Proving Filaments that remain active during a series of limited time events, these new Proving Grounds will be accessible to small groups of Capsuleers, fighting against each other in a variety of specified ship types.
The Depths of the Abyss update coming in September will introduce new tiers to Abyssal Deadspace, allowing players who are unfamiliar with the Abyss a chance to experience it at a more accessible level, while also offering more experienced Capsuleers even greater challenges and rewards!
The introduction of Tier 0 sites to Abyssal Deadspace will offer less experienced, curious Capsuleers an opportunity to dip their toe into Abyssal Deadspace with less danger. This will allow them to become familiar with the kind of ships and environments they can expect to encounter at higher tiers.
For those who are looking for a greater challenge, new Tier 6 Abyssal Deadspace pockets are also coming as part of the Depths of the Abyss update! Offering even better rewards, these new sites will give even seasoned Abyss runners something new to master.
