EVE Online is an MMO game set in a world of galactic proportions, governed by a hyper-capitalistic economy where space flight is the path to all commerce, communication, and conflict.

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 today launched EVE Anywhere, a cloud-based platform based on Intel technology for the hit spaceship MMO EVE Online.

Working closely with Intel, EVE Anywhere allows pilots to command their fleets through Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari on any desktop or laptop computer. Previously limited to premium Omega account users while in beta, EVE Anywhere is now available for EVE Online players in the USA and select* European territories. The platform will be available for additional territories later this year.

EVE Anywhere is powered by Intel technology, allowing CCP to remotely access high-capacity compute via the cloud. By operating in the cloud, EVE Anywhere removes the barrier of hardware limitations and opens up the MMO’s iconic adventures to new audiences. This revolutionizes both the accessibility and pace of the game, as anyone can play ‘virtually’ anywhere they want and seamlessly switch between a web browser or theEVE Online client’s launcher.

The platform entered into beta last year for territories across Europe and saw an overwhelmingly positive reception. Since August 2021, more than 11,000 users across the globe have streamed 86,000 sessions in EVE Anywhere. Throughout the beta, CCP took valuable community feedback to improve the overall cloud experience for EVE Anywhere’s full-scale launch.

“EVE Anywhere was incredibly well received by those testing it in beta over the past year. We truly appreciate you Capsuleers who tried it out and shared invaluable feedback to help us improve the experience,” said Bergur Finnbogason, EVE Online’s Creative Director. “Thanks to all of your help, we’re finally ready to get EVE Anywhere into your hands, no matter your browser preferences.”

To access EVE Anywhere, go to the official Eve Online website, sign in to your account, and click the ‘Launch EVE Online’ button to start playing. A connection speed of 25Mbps or higher is required for a reliable cloud-based experience.

*EVE Anywhere is now available in the following European territories: Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Monaco, Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.
