The sites can reward you with new boosters, Glamourex boosters, new Capsuleer Day XX SKINs on Guristas, Angel Cartel, and SoCT ships, as well as Genolution implants. In addition, PvP loot drops will increase from 50% to 75% for the duration of the event!

EVE Online: Viridian – NEW EXPANSION IN JUNE
As if there was not enough to celebrate already, a brand-new expansion for EVE Online is on its way, as mentioned in the
Producer’s Letter[www.eveonline.com] earlier this year!
EVE Online: Viridian is coming in June 2023 and will open even more avenues for players to forge new relationships, fly and work together for the glory of their corporation, further shaping New Eden and building upon 20 years of legacy in space. You can start getting excited for structure customization, new Tech II capital ships, plus corporation goals and content such as the much-anticipated Loyalty Point tax!
EVE Online: Viridian will empower capsuleers to come together and work towards a joint purpose, set by their corporation leaders and involving many playstyles. Having members access and track fresh challenges will help corps invest in their future, as well as assisting with corp management, automating the tracking of member contributions towards corp goals, and increasing the quality of life for all members – all of whom will have an important role to fulfill for the greater good of their organization. These are the first steps towards focusing corp member activities into aiding war efforts from beyond the frontlines in the future.
As part of the
EVE Online: Viridian expansion, corporations will also be able to spend their collected corp EverMarks on the visual customization of player owned Upwell structures. This will give the appointed corp members the power, tools, and agency to brand these structures, cementing their corp identity in the landscape of New Eden.
As EVE officially enters its third decade on the path to forever, you will band together, rise to the challenge, and do your part for your corp, flying together as one. More will be revealed over the coming weeks, so consider permission to get hyped granted.
EVE may be forever, but it will only turn 20 once, and there are many activities and celebrations to get involved in, not least of all EVE Fanfest 2023 in September. Ensure your legacy is carved into that illustrious history, join the festivities, and set course for a third decade of interstellar greatness.
Get into the spirit and share your favorite stories, screenshots, moments, and memories of EVE Online using the hashtag #eveonline20 as the revelry explodes around you!
