A new blockchain game set in the EVE Online universe announced

CCP Games, the developers of the long-standing sci-fi space MMO EVE Online, has announced that it is creating a new spin-off game that will utilize blockchain technology. This new AAA title will be set in the same universe as EVE Online, and CCP Games has secured funding of $40 million from venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz to make the project a reality.

The Details of the Announcement

CCP Games revealed the news on Twitter, stating that the new game will be developed on-chain, with the goal of creating new connections between virtual worlds and users. The company has also launched a micro-site for the project, which will likely serve as a hub for future updates.

What’s New?

Despite being in the industry for nearly 20 years, EVE Online still has a thriving player base. However, with the addition of blockchain technology, the upcoming spin-off game will offer a new and unique experience to fans. CCP Games’ decision to explore blockchain technology is driven by the potential to offer more player autonomy and new gameplay experiences.

What Fans Can Expect

Although EVE Online‘s CEO, Hilmar Veigar Pétursson, previously stated that blockchain technology would not be added to the game, the new project will be a separate venture from the current MMO. As such, fans can expect a completely new experience from the spin-off game that incorporates blockchain technology.

While the new game’s specifics have not yet been revealed, fans can expect the same level of quality and attention to detail that CCP Games has demonstrated in the past. With funding from one of the largest venture capital firms, it is clear that CCP Games is committed to creating a game that will appeal to fans of both EVE Online and blockchain technology.
