EVE Online

There has been a lot of speculation around blockchain technology, NFTs and cryptocurrency and what that means for the future of EVE Online, so I wanted to address it.

At CCP, our mission is to have the EVE Universe outlive us all: EVE Forever. One huge part of this is exploring new technologies and new possibilities - something EVE players know that I’m always fascinated by. This philosophy is rooted in EVE Online’s inception; when we created EVE, it was seen as too radical and ambitious, yet here we are about to celebrate EVE’s 19th anniversary.

Many of us at CCP have been following the new frontier that has been developing around blockchains and cryptocurrencies for the past few years. We’ve read your feedback and we also see what you see - blockchain tech has both a lot of untapped potential and a lot of work needed before being ready for EVE-scale games.

On that note, we have no plans to add blockchain technology into EVE Online’s global server Tranquilit... Read more

Relentless Capsuleers,

The Hunt returns to New Eden for YC124. Join your fellow Capsuleers in the hunt for Mysterious Capsules found at random celestials across the cluster. Check your directional scanner and start the hunt at planets, moons, asteroid belts, and stars to uncover these colorful capsules. Crack one open to receive a key to enter one of the many Guristas Hunt sites.

Guristas Hunt Outposts can be found anywhere and are combat sites suited for tech 1, tech 2, and faction frigates and destroyers. You’ll also find Hunt Data Relay sites to complete. Both types of sites will reward you with unique loot limited to The Hunt such as the coveted C3-X 'Hivaa Saitsuo' Ballistic Control System!

Even better, Hunt sites this year will now drop double the loot if you can secure a kill on the combat site mini boss. Data sites also have more cans to hack and more loot to get away with. There has never been a better time to hunt for loot!

Greetings fellow Capsuleers and welcome back to another Community Beat!

In the last Community Beat[www.eveonline.com] we covered the absolute carnage that was Stay Frosty’s Annual Frigate Free for All, the convergence of the Plex4Good Battleship Brawl, the jamming vibes of the EveWave, and every cartographer’s dream, DOTLAN!

We had a little bit of information come in about the Frigate Free for All – It saw roughly 100b of ISK destroyed throughout the event. We can confidently confirm that this year’s Frigate Free for All crushed the single system lowsec kill record that had previously belonged to… last year’s Frigate Free for all! This year’s Frigate free for all was the 4th bloodiest single-system event in Eve... Read more

Lovestricken Capsuleers,



The only ship better than the friendship is the relationship and who says that relationship can’t be forged with your fellow Capsuleer?

Generous Capsuleers,

Together we have achieved something amazing. With the PLEX for GOOD: Ukraine fundraiser now wrapped, together Capsuleers, individual EVE developers and CCP Games have raised a remarkable $501,652 USD. That money will now directly help those impacted by the ongoing war in Ukraine, including the millions forced to flee their homes and lives to find safety.

The total amount will be converted to real world money and donated to both UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency[donate.unhcr.org], and the National Bank of Ukraine Humanitarian Assistance... Read more

Greetings Capsuleers,

Fanfest 2022 is quickly approaching and it’s hard to believe that in just over 7 weeks’ time, we will finally be welcoming you to the ultimate Party at the Top of the World in Reykjavík. We can’t tell you how much we at CCP are looking forward to meeting you again in person to share the exciting plans for EVE Online. As we all continue to get into the spirit of Fanfest, there’s still much to look forward to on the road to getting there. So far, the Road to Fanfest has been filled with a slew of updates including significant changes to compression, a new mysterious mining adventure added to the NPE, sizeable graphical updates, sweeping boosts to every resistance module in the game, balance changes to CRAB, and player owned customs offices (POCOs), as well as extensive updates to battleships, all of which you can read about in the ...

Greetings, brave capsuleers!

As a part of our ongoing efforts to lay the foundations for EVE Online’s third decade and continually improve the world’s largest living work of science-fiction, we’re happy to introduce the Feature Preview system – allowing players to opt-in and engage with complex features still undergoing active development, test driving them directly in the EVE client.

Our aim is to more fully incorporate feedback into our prototypical process by allowing you access to these features early while we design them. Your invaluable feedback on past features has already allowed us to improve and shape them into better additions to EVE – and this new way of testing will allow far more exposed development, enabling earlier chances for players to express important feedback while also allowing our team to gather information on how you play EVE and what will best aid you in that pursuit.

The preview system is available on Singularity and comes to Tran... Read more
