Are you wondering what these two titles have in common? EVE Online and World of Warships are two of the biggest spaceship and warship MMO games of all time, respectively. They also both have huge dedicated player communities, and are renowned for their epic-scale player battles!

EVE Online and World of Warships allow their players to choose between a variety of ship classes, and there is a degree of similarity in the division of classes across the games. The available choices enable tactical diversity to flourish for players in both game worlds. Destroyers, cruisers, battleships, and carriers are examples of the ship types that players can use to employ a wide range of strategies—including tactical fitting—on the seas of World of Warships and among the stars of New Eden.

There's never been a better time to try EVE Online and World of Warships, so grab the CCP × Wargaming Bundle today to get off to an explosive start in both New Eden and out on the open virtual seas!

Value-seeking Capsuleers,

You can now get four brand new Packs for EVE Online, giving fresh Capsuleers a chance to make an immediate impact in New Eden. The packs contain items such as Omega, PLEX, Skill Points and excellent SKINs, so there's plenty of appeal for more experienced players, too.

Ranging from the Bronze Pack which starts at $9.99 to the Platinum Pack, you can get between 30 to 90 days of Omega, up to 1500 PLEX and a range of different SKINs depending on which pack you go for.

Like the previous packs, you can only buy each pack once per account, so check them out now and either use it to make a flying start to your life in New Eden or as an opportunity to top up your PLEX or Omega!

Festive Capsuleers,

In celebration of the Lunar New Year, we are delighted to announce the return of the Serene and Absent Heroes Serenity SKIN lines! The SKINs are available in the New Eden Store right now, and you have time until 11:00 UTC 10 January to add them to your impressive collection.

The Serene SKIN series are available on five hulls at the following prices:

• Magnate - 110 PLEX
  
• Naga - 110 PLEX
  
• Cynabal - 110 PLEX
  
• Augoror Navy Issue - 110 PLEX
  
• Hyperion - 250 PLEX
  
• A bundle of all 5 SKINs will be available at 15% off their total price.

• Rifter - 110 PLEX
  
• Typhoon - 250 PLEX
  
• A bundle of both SKINs will also be available at 15% off their total price.

Skilled Capsuleers,

Bonus Skill Point Weekend is returning between 24 and 27 January 2020, with massive Skill Point rewards for both Alpha and Omega Clone State pilots! Log in daily to claim thousands of Skill Points that you can use to boost your training, honing combat skills that are great for the Fight or Flight Quadrant events.

As long as you make sure to log in every day during Bonus Skill Point Weekend, as an Alpha you can get up to 75,000 Skill Points, and Omegas will get both their own and the Alpha rewards, meaning a whopping 250,000 Skill Points total! Perfect for training those Triglavian skills and piloting the fearsome new Zirnitra Dreadnought.



If that isn’t enough to quench your thirst for Skill Points, then you’’ll be thrilled to hear that due to popular demand, the Skilling Spree will also be returning to New Eden! From 28 January to 2 March, pilots will receive one of three randomly selected challenges that offer either 10k, 25k, or a whopping 50k Skill Points as a reward for destroying NPC vessels.

Pilots will be rewarded upon completing the challenge, and a new one will be offered to them at the next daily downtime. If the challenge is not completed successfully, it will be replaced by another randomly selected challenge during the next daily downtime at 11:00 UTC.

[h2]USEFUL INFORMATION[/h2]
Here are some clarifications for the Bonus Skill Point event:

• Pilots can claim one reward (consisting of both one Alpha and one Omega reward depending on clone status) per day.
  
• New Eden counts days from downtime to downtime. Rewards refresh at 11:00 UTC each day.
  
• The day one reward is the first that a player can claim, regardless of which day of the event they claim it on. They then claim the day two reward the next day, and so on.
  
• One set of rewards is available for every account in game.
  
• One set of rewards is only available for Omega accounts - claiming this reward gives both the Alpha and Omega reward for that day.
  
• Should an Alpha account upgrade to Omega at any point during the event, they will receive all Omega rewards retroactively for the days that they have claimed in the event so far.
  

[h2]HOW DO I CLAIM MY SKILL POINTS?[/h2]
To claim your Skill Points, all you need to do is log in to EVE Online and follow these simple instructions on the character selection screen:

• Click "Claim All" at the bottom of the highlighted day in the Daily Login Campaigns window.
  
• You will then receive a confirmation that you've claimed the day's Skill Points.
  
• You'll now see a "Redeemable Items" bar at the bottom of the screen, click it to expand it.
  
• Your Skill Points are right there, simply drag and drop them onto the character you'd like to use them on.
  
• As you drag and drop the Skill Points, you'll receive a confirmation that tells you they have been delivered to your character's unallocated Skill Point queue.
  

The start of the new year has seen EVE Online's first Quadrant - Fight or Flight - begin, and it is being marked by the release of the new Dragonaur Blitz event, as well as the Warhead Upgrades update.



[h2]Dragonaur Blitz[/h2]

CONCORD urges you to join the Dragonaur Blitz and attack the extremist Templis Dragonaurs outcasts in Low-sec sites in specified ship types, and earn the new Nirvana Implant BPCs. This limited time event ends 27 January, so act fast and get involved!

As mentioned above, only certain ship types will be allowed entry to Dragonaur Blitz sites. These will include ships with bonuses to Heavy Missiles and recently rebalanced Caldari craft that are most affected by the Warhead Upgrades update (details below).

The Dragonaur Blitz event will also be your first opportunity as pioneering Capsuleers to earn blueprints for the new High and Mid-Grade Nirvana Implants. So, it's time to climb aboard the right ship, prepare for attack - as well as some surprises along the way - and hit the Templis Dragonaurs extremists for the honor of the Caldari State!



[h2]Warhead Upgrades[/h2]

Lock onto your targets with the Warhead Upgrades update, which increases the damage dealt by Heavy Missiles in New Eden! The 5% increase to damage dealt by Heavy Missiles will encourage their use more often in future PvP encounters.

The update also sees the introduction of the exciting new Nirvana Faction Implants, which can provide bonuses to shield HP, as well as characteristics such as Perception, Memory, Intelligence, Charisma, and Willpower, depending on the implant used. These implants will initially be available only through the Dragonaur Blitz event, where ships that are most affected by the Warhead Upgrades update will be eligible for entry.

There is also a return to module tiericide with Shield Boosters. Siren fighters will also have their speed reduced by way of having their Microwarp Drives replaced with Afterburners.



[h2]Heat-Seeker Bundle[/h2]

You can now get the Heat-Seeker SKIN Bundle in EVE Online's New Eden Store, featuring discounted SKINs for the ships most affected by Warhead Upgrades and suitable for Dragonaur Blitz! Kit out your Drake, Caracal, Cerberus and Tengu with SKINs from the bundle, or check out the other discounts on Zento Isideko Combine, Convergence and Snowline Bladeracer SKINs for these and other Caldari hulls. The offers end at 11:00 UTC on 28 January, so no time to hesitate!
