Abyssal Proving Grounds return

The time has come for new legends to be written - another reckoning in the Abyssal Proving Grounds means a chance of glory for some of the cluster’s finest PvP Capsuleers. Until 11:00 UTC on 27 April, you can engage in 2v2 battles with your Navy faction frigates.

Eligible vessels are: Caldari Navy Hookbill, Republic Fleet Firetail, Imperial Navy Slicer, Federation Navy Comet, Vigil Fleet Issue, Maulus Navy Issue, Griffin Navy Issue, and Crucifier Navy Issue.

Limitations for this round are:

  • Modules limited to meta level 5 and below
  • No pirate implants


As always, Proving Filaments are required for participation, collected from Abyssal Deadspace loot drops or bought from the in-game market.

Capsuleer performance can be tracked on the Proving Grounds leaderboards, so get out there and bring prestige to your name!

Starter Pack 72h Refresh Sale

The old starter packs are on their way out so it’s your last chance to get great value on them before they’re gone! For the next 72 hours only, you can get 30% off in the EVE Store on the current Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum packs for a limited time, saving even more on these amazing deals.

The sale lasts from 23 to 26 April at 11:00 UTC so you need to act fast and get them before they’re gone forever!



Each pack can only be redeemed once per account, though purchasing current packs will not lock you out from the new packs soon to be revealed.

Project Discovery nominated for Webby Award

Pioneering Capsuleers,

Project Discovery, the groundbreaking citizen science project and mini-game found within EVE Online, has been nominated for Best Public Service, Activism, and Social Impact Game in the 25th Annual Webby Awards. You can vote now and help EVE Online - Project Discovery win this top honor!

Since June 2020, Project Discovery participants have contributed to a major real-life scientific program that aims to understand the immune system’s response to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). In partnership with teams at McGill University, BC Cancer and front-line COVID-19 clinicians such as Dr Andrea Cossarizza (Professor of Immunology at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia School of Medicine in Italy), players have been marking cell populations on graphs which help scientists further understand how COVID-19 specifically affects blood cells. With over 115 million submissions made in the past year, players have helped to produce data that would not exist without the efforts of EVE’s dedicated global community.

Hailed as the “Internet’s highest honor” by The New York Times, the Webby Awards, presented by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences (IADAS), is the leading international awards organization honoring excellence on the Internet.

As a nominee, CCP Games is also eligible to win a Webby People’s Voice Award, which is voted online by fans across the globe. From now until 6 May, EVE Online fans can cast their votes at vote.webbyawards.com. Winners will be announced on Tuesday 18 May.
