EVE is a community-driven massively multiplayer online (MMO) game, set in a world of galactic proportions. This online universe is governed by a hyper-capitalistic economy where space flight is the path to all commerce, communication, and conflict. Your mission is to establish yourself as a major competitor, trusted by your friends, feared by your enemies. To accomplish this, your principle tools -- apart from an impressive array of sophisticated equipment, customizable space ships and in-game corporations -- will be your natural business acumen, social skills, Machiavellian thinking and cunning combat strategies.

Set tens of thousands of years in the future, EVE Online is a breathtaking journey to the stars, to an immersive experience filled with adventure, riches, danger and glory. With nearly a quarter of a million subscribers worldwide inhabiting the same virtual universe, EVE features a vast player-run economy where your greatest asset is the starship, designed to accommodate your specific needs, skills and ambitions. EVE offers professions ranging from commodities trader to mercenary, industrial entrepreneur to pirate, mining engineer to battle fleet commander or any combination of these and much more. From brokering business deals to waging war, you will have access to a diverse array of sophisticated tools and interfaces to forge your own destiny in EVE.

CCP Games shared an ambitious 2025 roadmap for EVE Online, promising promises two major expansions along with the return of fan-favorite in-game events, as well as the long-awaited reunion at EVE Fanfest 2025, to be held May 1--3 at Reykjavík's iconic Harpa Concert Hall.

As the Revenant narrative arc continues to unfold, the rising tension between the Deathless and the Drifters will lead to the next expansion for EVE Online, arriving in Summer 2025. Focusing on empowering players within the sandbox, it will offer enhanced tools for customizing player-owned sovereign space, enabling capsuleers to set their own agendas and create content for their communities. These upgrades are being designed to give corporations a higher degree of agency, deepening the dynamic and player-driven emergent gameplay within the universe of New Eden.

The introduction of Freelance Projects will open the door to new levels of cooperation where pilots can craft and complete missions created by fellow capsuleers. From mercenary contracts to collaborative ventures, this new system will create new emergent opportunities for storytelling, conflict, exploration, and relationship-building within EVE Online. With new ships, tactical objectives, and tools for all fleet sizes, the future of war will continue to be reshaped. These additions will offer fertile ground for small and large fleets to thrive, pushing EVE's signature sandbox to new heights.

"This year, we're putting even more power in the hands of our capsuleers," said Snorri Árnason, Game Director for EVE Online. "From customizing sovereign space to crafting missions that spark new alliances, the 2025 roadmap is all about letting players create and shape their own moments, their own stories and ultimately being part of the history books of New Eden itself. EVE Online has always been a living universe driven by its community, and with the new tools and systems we're introducing, the potential for creativity and collaboration has never been greater."

"2025 will be monumental for EVE Online," said Bergur Finnbogason, EVE Online's Creative Director. "We've listened to player feedback to refine our development process and create high-quality expansions that empower capsuleers. Join us in New Eden to experience a year filled with characters to meet, alliances to forge---or break---and thrilling stories to uncover. It's a year you don't want to miss!"

Fan-favorite events, including Capsuleer Day, Crimson Harvest, and Winter Nexus, will also return in 2025, along with the Alliance Tournament, promising fierce competition among New Eden's finest fleets. Later this year, the second expansion will arrive in Winter 2025.
