In Overlord, ambitious leaders will unlock a new level of empire management and realize their grand designs for the universe. Specialized vassal roles will allow players to either elevate the planets within their realms to new heights of glory, or keep them in line and under control. New enclaves will present unique opportunities and challenges, and a selection of new megastructures will offer ways to project power further and faster. Five new Origins, new music, and more will be included when Overlord launches later this year.

“The stories our players have told through the last six years of Stellaris never fail to amaze us,” said Stephen Muray, Game Director of Stellaris at Paradox Development Studio. “We’ve seen empires rise and fall, unite and destroy, and clash overtly or covertly with their galactic neighbors. With Overlord, we want to give players more options and opportunities to realize their own ‘space operas,’ build a universe full of grand houses or squabbling vassals, and see how long they can hold power over what they’ve created. Look for more details on what it means to be a galactic Overlord very soon!”

Gateway focuses on a series of themed activities welcoming new and returning players to EVE Online. To celebrate the Quadrant’s launch, CCP has released this trailer: Gateway Trailer

EVE Online’s revamped onboarding experience is a rich, emotionally-driven narrative available for players arriving in-game for the first time. It introduces players to a fresh cast of characters that teach the essential features and controls, including how to pilot a ship, survive a firefight, make money, and more. After completing the training program, players will have a solid understanding of how to thrive amongst the stars.

“It is the best time in EVE’s 18-year history for pilots to fly into New Eden,” said Bergur Finnbogason, EVE Online’s Creative Director. “The heart of EVE Online has always been its players.

For Quadrant 3 we are opening up the Gateway for new Capsuleers into EVE Online, starting with the new player experience. I’m excited to see how these new pilots will shape the game for years to come!” In addition, Quadrant 3: Gateway will add new content and balance updates, such as changes to resource distribution that signal the start of greater updates to the scarcity of resources in New Eden. Players can expect to see further resource distribution changes in the fourth Quadrant of 2021, which kicks off November 2021. To learn more about Quadrant 3: Gateway, head over to this blog post here.

As part of the revamped skill system, Gateway also introduces customizable skill plans to EVE Online. Created with character development in mind, skill plans allow players to build, and share, a list of skills without purchasing or injecting them first. The streamlined system provides players with a better understanding of how skills function and help achieve aspirational goals. More information on skill plans can be found in the blog here.

“There are many ways to learn and grow in EVE now, whether it’s the training program, skill plans, or EVE Academy,” said Merkelchen, a member of the CSM 16, EVE’s democratically elected council of player representatives. “The veteran community is excited about this and there is truly no time like the present to jump into EVE, no matter how familiar you are with it.”

A whole new generation of players will soon be warping into New Eden when EVE Online comes to the Epic Games Store on September 23. This launch will make EVE Online the premier MMO on the platform.

EVE Online can be downloaded for free by visiting www.eveonline.com. For all the latest information about the game, please visit EVE News.

Faction Wargames

Faction Wargames is a new 10v10 mode that has players battle each other in a combat simulator, using a selection of pre-made ships to level the playing field. Competing in this mode will let players earn Loyalty Points, which can be traded for in-game items including nanocores, and the ship debris of Sisters of EVE and Mordu’s Legion.

Faction Wargames is ideal for teaching both new and experienced players about PvP combat and teamwork without the risk of losing their ships and modules. EVE Echoes is also planning on adding additional modes and optimizations for Faction Wargames.

New Exploration Sites: Relic and Data Sites

The Anniversary Update for EVE Echoes will add new Exploration Sites, which will shake things up for Exploration and Industry players.  There will be Pirate Data and Relic Sites hidden around New Eden. Players can hack them with a special data analyzer to get blueprints for ship rigs, as well as Industry Decryptors, which give various bonuses to manufacturing and reverse engineering.

Citadel Support Structures

In the INDOMITABLE expansion in January, Corporations gained the ability to build outposts and claim the sovereignty of nullsec zones. This time, Six Corporation Citadel Support Structures will be added to the game to provide more benefits to corporations. These structures will increase the productivity and value of the Corporation Citadel, adding additional value to sovereignty mechanics and waging war. The Corporation Citadel and its support structures can now be upgraded, which will increase the bonuses given by support structures as well as making the Citadel become invincible. Players will also now be able to take control of them using a special module known as an Entosis Link. It’s time to say hello to the next generation of sovereignty battles!

Brand New Tutorial System

EVE Echoes is receiving a brand-new tutorial, which is designed to be as user-friendly as possible, with new special hints and UI upgrades to explain different aspects of the game. It will be easier than ever for newcomers to join New Eden.

Overview of Future Updates
Dreadnoughts & Carriers

It is revealed that four dreadnoughts and four carriers (one of each per faction) will be released in an October update. These ships will drastically alter how battles will be fought, which will allow players to use new strategies to achieve victory.

Project Discovery

EVE Echoes players will have a chance to help conduct real scientific research, as Project Discovery is coming to the game later this year. Players can complete special in-game mini games to help analyze and verify the research data of different proteins and their role in disease.  Project Discovery will give all EVE Echoes players a chance to work together, to contribute to scientific research that could be used to save lives.
